Preheat oven to 400° F. Cut leaves and stems from beets and discard, or use for another purpose.

Scrub and wash clean under water. Place a beet on a square of foil and drizzle with a bit of olive oil. Lightly sprinkle with salt and pepper, then tightly wrap in foil. Repeat for remaining beets.

Place beets on a baking sheet. Bake 35-40 minutes, until tender. Cool slightly before removing foil.

Scrub or peel off the skin and discard. Thinly slice beets and place stacked in small mason jars and set aside.

In a saucepan over medium-high heat, combine water, vinegar, sugar, bay leaf, peppercorns, and salt, plus additional desired spices or herbs. Bring to a boil then pour over beets until they are submerged.

Tightly seal on lids and let cool slightly at room temp. Pace jars in the refrigerator for 4 to 7 days, then serve.

There&#x27;s no need for a long canning process to make these Quick Pickled Beets. Just pour a simple brine over cooked beets and let them chill in the fridge. Add them to salads, serve as a side dish, or enjoy straight from the jar!
