Ingredients
- 3 large beets about 1 ½ pounds
- 2 Tbsp. oil olive or avocado
- ¾ tsp. salt to taste
- ¼ tsp. black pepper to taste
- ½ cup goat cheese crumbled
- ½ cup pecans toasted (optional to toast)
- ½ tsp. thyme fresh, finely chopped
- ½ tsp. rosemary fresh, finely chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400℉.
- Prepare Beets: Using a vegetable peeler, peel the outer skin from the beets. Remove the stem end and cut beets into ½ to 1-inch cubes. Add beets to a large bowl and toss with oil, salt, and black pepper.
- Bake in Oven: Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and place cut beets in a single layer. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until beets are tender. Flip beets after 20 minutes or cooking and add the pecans.
- Serving: When beets are fork tender, sprinkle with goat cheese and herbs.
Notes
- Prep-Ahead Instructions:
- Roast the beets a day or two early. Keep in the fridge.
- Storage Directions:
- Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 to 4 days. Note the cheese will soften and "melt" into the beets after a day or so. Store everything separately for the best results. Freeze roasted beets for up to 8 months. Allow the beets to thaw in the fridge before serving.
- Recipe Tips:
- Dye it all. Be sure to use a plastic cutting board that is ok to get messy, as beet juice stains.
- Make it early. You can fix this up the night before and pack if for a super nutrient-dense lunch to make your fellow co-workers swoon.
- Plus it up. Try serving it on top of a bed of spinach and arugula or your favorite greens with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil.
- Flavors galore. Feel free to use a different kind of cheese (like feta cheese), almonds or walnuts instead of pecans, or even sage instead of rosemary. Red onion and lemon juice add a bite to this delicious recipe.
