I pulled beets yesterday and roasted them. Many of you may already roast beets like me, but sharing anyway. I could eat these daily!
Peel (I peel ahead of time) several beets and cut into even sized wedges. Place them into a plastic or reusable plastic bag. Cut up 1 or 2 garden onions or shallots into slices and add to bag. I've used any type of onion. Drizzle them with olive oil, sea salt and dried thyme (from your herb garden of course  ) Shake gently to coat.
Line a baking sheet with a piece of foil large enough to fold up over the beets (I bake mine on a pampered chef stoneware pan). Pour your beets onto the foil and place fresh cut sprigs of rosemary over the top of the beets. Fold in ends of foil to seal them up and bake at 400°F for 1 1/4 - 1 1/2 hours. Depending on the size you cut your beets and how thick you layer is, may depend on cooking time.
My picky eaters can't stop eating these!

I soooo love beets and have all the ingredients to make them as the recipe states. I do a medley of either new potatoes or cut up ones with a bunch of olive oil, broken up fresh rosemary, salt and pepper.....but I boil them first a bit. Fine dining I say with a dollup of sour cream to boot!
Roasted beets here I come!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love roasting beets. Actually gave my CSA my recipe because they had members saying that they didn't want beets because they only knew how to pickle them.
My daughter was sure she hated beets until she tried then roasted

That sounds so good, Kristina. I am going to have to chisel my poor beets out of the ground. It's SO hard out there right now. We have not had rain in a month. But I did see some so I know I have some big ones out there. I will try this soon. Thanks.
