– Preheat your oven to 400℉. – Wash your beets well and pat them dry.
– Carefully use a knife to trim the tops and bottoms off of your clean beets.
– Place each trimmed beet on a sheet of foil. Drizzle each with 1/4 tablespoon oil, if using.
– Wrap each beet up, having the opening for each pouch at the top of the beet. Arrange the beets on a baking sheet.
– Roast smaller beets for 30-35 minutes and larger beets for 45-60 minutes. Your beet is done cooking when it is fork tender and the skin easily lifts from flesh.
– Let cooked beets cool completely before peeling. The skin should easily fall off of the beet with your fingers or a fork. You can use a paper towel to prevent the beet juice from staining your fingers.
– Slice cooked beet and enjoy over a salad, as a side dish sprinkled with salt, or add them to one of the suggested recipes above. Store in fridge for 4-5 days or in your freezer for months to come.
ENJOY!
