Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized beets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 1 clove garlic
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 0.25 cup goat cheese (optional)
- 2 tablespoons walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and trim the tops and roots of the beets. Wrap each beet individually in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet.
Roast the beets in the oven for 50-60 minutes, or until they can be easily pierced with a fork.
While the beets are roasting, prepare the vinaigrette. Mince the garlic clove and set it aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Once the beets are roasted, carefully unwrap them (they will be hot). Let them cool enough to handle, then peel off the skin using your hands or a paper towel.
Slice the peeled beets into wedges or rounds, depending on your preference, and place them in a large bowl.
Pour the vinaigrette over the warm beets and toss to coat evenly. Allow the beets to marinate for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Chop the fresh parsley finely and sprinkle it over the marinated beets.
If desired, top the dish with crumbled goat cheese and toasted walnuts for added texture and flavor.
Serve the roasted marinated beets warm, at room temperature, or chilled, depending on your preference. Enjoy!
