Easy Roasted Beets

Earthy sweetness, and beautiful color. Here is an easy way to prepare this delicious and affordable vegetable.

Ingredients:

• 2lb Bag of Nature’s Finest Beets
• 2 Tablespoons of Olive oil
• Salt and Pepper to taste
• Parsley

Instructions:

1.  Wash beets thoroughly in cold water to remove dirt.
2.  Cut the top and bottom off the beets, and peel the beets with a potato peeler.
3.  Cut the beets into large bite-sized chunks.
4.  Mix the beets in a bowl with Olive Oil, salt and pepper.
5.  Cover a baking pan or a piece of foil with parchment paper (so that the beets are sealed in, but loosely wrapped).
6.  Cook at 400 degrees farenheit for 45-60 minutes – or until the beets can be easily poked with a fork.
7.  Garnish with parsley and serve as is, or let them cool and add to a fresh salad.
