Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 F. Coat beets lightly with olive oil. Wrap tightly in aluminum foil and place on a foil-lined baking sheet. On the other half of the baking sheet, place the sliced carrots and drizzle some olive oil.
  2. Roast carrots for only 30 minutes, remove them from the oven and return the beets back to the oven. Roast beets until tender and easily pierced with a knife, about 1 hour total. Remove from the oven and let cool for about 10 minutes.
  3. Slip off the skins with a paring knife and cut the stem. Slice beets in 1/2" slices, and then half each slice.
  4. Place roasted beets and carrots in a serving bowl, season with salt, black pepper and pour the maple vinaigrette. Toss to coat. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Serve warm.

Maple Vinaigrette

  1. Mix all ingredients in a small mixing bowl until well combined.

Notes

  • Wrapping beets in foil locks in steam and helps them cook through without drying out. It also makes peeling the skins a breeze after roasting.
  • Use similar sized beets and slice the carrots evenly so that everything cooks through at the same time.
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan: Give your veggies space—crowding traps moisture and leads to steaming, not roasting.
