Roasted Spiralized Beets with Honey Mustard Vinaigrette
Description
In this recipe, large beets are peeled or left unpeeled according to preference, then spiralized into long, thin strands. The beets are roasted at 400°F for 10 to 13 minutes until soft but retaining structure. The dressing combines balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper whisked into a smooth vinaigrette.
The caramelized edges formed during roasting contrast with the beets’ natural earthiness, while the vinaigrette adds brightness and subtle sweetness. The spiralized texture offers a visually appealing and delicate bite rather than thick chunks or slices.
This dish can be served warm or at room temperature as a side salad or a light appetizer, providing a balance of flavors and textures. The preparation highlights the versatility of beets when roasted and dressed thoughtfully.
Ingredients
- 2 beets washed and peeled (peeling is optional; it looks nicer peeled but the peel also has a lot of nutrition, large
- 1/2 teaspoon salt sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar dark
- 2-3 teaspoons honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Make the vinaigrette: Place the ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until emulsified. Slice the beets using a spiralizer. We use and recommend the Paderno World Spiralizer. Spread the beets out on a lined cookie sheet. Drizzle with a little olive oil and sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Roast the beets for 10-13 minutes or until the beets are soft.
- Place the beets in a large bowl and pour over the vinaigrette. Stir to evenly coat the beets. Serve immediately while warm or serve at room temperature.
