Let’s start at the very beginning. A very good place to start.
OK. We are not talking the Sound of Music here. Just learning some basic cooking skills that take no effort at all. Let’s bake Perfect Roasted Beets. Why perfect? Ahhhh. Because they are….
How do I use my Perfect Roasted Beets?
Great question! Use them on salads, puree them for soups. Make beet pasta sauces.
Sprinkle with some salt & pepper and eat them as is. Create an million of your own recipes with them!
All you need to do is pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees F. Trim the stems off of your beets (get as many colors as you can!) and wrap each beet in tin foil. Bake about 45 minutes or until they are nice & tender.
Peel the beets when they are done cooking.
This is the perfect no mess way to make a delicious & healthy food!
Enjoy!

Hi Melanie! Lucky girl growing those beets…I’ll be posting lots of recipes in the next few weeks using this wonderful root veggie You have a great week too!
I have added more beets to my menu for health reasons, but I need more ways to prepare them. I appreciated your tips and suggestions that are so easy and simple.
Awesome Charlie! Glad I can provide some simple & tasty tips!
Yep, Im a beet lover. Great primer for those who havent tried them.
Naomi…..you have some amazing recipes that include beets. Glad you are a fan
I’ve always been sort of afraid of beets because I’ve only known them as pickled, which I did not care for. I may need to try them roasted, though. And one of the recipes you linked looks like it could be quite good and worth a try.
Yes, the pickled beet is a way different deal than the roasted ones. Give them a whirl & see what you think!
I make roasted beets all the time. It’s one of my favorite vegetables. I am yet to find the marbles ones. How pretty Marla. Beautiful pics as always
Love that you call them “Marble” they are!
Love this tip and your photos are gorgeous!
Thank you so much Aimee!!
Roasted Beets are one of my very favorites! I love the pictures too….
Great post — I roast beets the same way. Love to have them in the fridge to throw on a quick salad. Sometimes I need to put a bit of water in the foil packets or the sugars/juices burn.
I just LOVE that first photo!
Homemade roasted beets are so good!
Ugh, I LOVE beets. Stupidly so. Thanks so much for dropping my soup-a-doup into the links! xoxo!
Hi Emily!! your soup looks FABULOUS!!! xo

I love beets too! Just sprinkle a little salt, squeeze lemon on it and have one of my favorite snacks. The colors are just amazing, we only have the reddish one here. Pinning!
OMG I just tried roasting beets for the first time last month. I don’t know how I had lived for so long before trying to roast them on my own! Also, love your photos!
Thanks so much Natalie! Glad you discovered their charm too
