beets

Olive oil

Kosher salt

chives,

goat cheese (optional)

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.

Wash the beets. Trim off all but about 1 inch of the beet greens (you can save them for later and use them in salads). Leaving on the stem helps keep the beets from “bleeding” out red juice in the oven.

Rub the beets lightly with olive oil. Place the beets in a covered oven proof dish. (You also can wrap each beet individually in aluminum foil and place them on the oven grates).

Roast the beets for 45 minutes to 1 1/2 hours, depending on the size and freshness, until tender when pierced with a fork. Check every 10 minutes until tender; we’ve found medium sized beets take about 1 hour.

Allow them to cool for a few minutes. Then place them under cool water and rub off the skins with your fingers. You can serve immediately, or refrigerate the whole beets until serving and serve them cold.

Slice the beets into rounds and arrange them on a plate. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with 1 pinch kosher salt. Top with thinly sliced chives. If desired, add goat cheese dollops.

This shocking pink beet hummus is a colorful healthy snack recipe! Serve it with veggie sticks and pita bread for dipping.

Creamy Beet Hummus

beet*

garlic clove

chickpeas (1 1/2 cups cooked)

lemon juice

tahini

salt

cumin (optional)

Cook the beet

(it&#8217;s easiest to use a leftover cooked beet!): Go to Oven Roasted Beet, Instant Pot Beets, or How to Boil Beets.

Peel the garlic. Drain the chickpeas into a liquid measuring cup. Juice the lemon.

Add the garlic to the bowl of a food processor and process until finely chopped. Add beet (cut into quarters), chickpeas, lemon juice, tahini, kosher salt, and 3 tablespoons aquafaba (water from the chickpea can). Puree for 30 seconds, then scrape down the bowl. Taste. If necessary, add 1 to 2 tablespoons aquafaba. Puree for 1 to 2 minutes to come to a creamy consistency. Store refrigerated for 7 to 10 days.

Top the hummus with cilantro leaves. Serve with veggies, pita bread, or crackers (like these homemade crackers!)

Beets are not always a well loved vegetable, but when prepared correctly they are delicious! Beets with their greens are two for one deal as they can both be used. I&#39;ll show you how to cook beets and beet greens with a recipe for roasted beets and sauteed beet greens!

Roasted Beets and Sauteed Beet Greens with Bacon

Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

pepper

beet greens

bacon

garlic (minced)

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.&nbsp;

Wash the beets well. Cut the root tips off then cut the greens from the roots.

If your beets are big, cut them into smaller wedges. If they are small leave them whole or simply cut them in half.&nbsp;

Put them on a piece of tinfoil (lined with parchment paper if you prefer) on a sheet pan or in a cast iron skillet, drizzle the wedges with olive oil, and sprinkle with a little salt and pepper.

Close up the tinfoil and put the beets in the preheated oven for at least an hour.

After an hour check the roasting beets with a knife to see if they are tender. They may need to cook for up to 30 minutes longer. 

Once the beets are fully cooked pull them out of the oven and open the foil to let them cool for a little while.

After they have cooled enough to handle, peel the beets with a paring knife.

Roasted Beets

In the meantime, cook the beet greens. Wash them well and roughly chop up the greens.

Heat a large skillet on medium heat and add the bacon or pancetta pieces.

Once the bacon starts to get a little crispy, add the beet greens to the pan. You may need to add a little oil or butter if your bacon or pancetta didn’t render a lot of fat.
