Roasted Beets with Mint and Feta Cheese

Serves: 4

Ingredients

  • 2 lb Foxy Organic Red Beets, tops removed and peeled
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp each salt and pepper
  • 1/3 cup finely crumbled feta cheese
  • 2 tbsp thinly sliced fresh mint

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Cut beets into wedges, about 2 inches at the widest end; toss with oil, honey, vinegar, salt and pepper.
  2. Arrange in single layer on parchment paper–lined baking sheet; roast for 30 to 35 minutes or until tender. Transfer to serving platter and sprinkle with feta and mint.

Tips:

• Save beet greens; add to salads or soups, or sauté with garlic.

• Sprinkle beets with toasted walnuts, pistachios or hazelnuts.

• Wear disposable gloves when handling beets to prevent colouring of hands.

• If preferred, substitute Foxy Organic Golden Beets for red beets.
