    I've never had a beet before. Not sure I feel quite up for it. Just sounds kind of weird to me lol

    I add fresh sage to mine. It's super yummy! Actually, I haven't made this dish in a while. I ate it SO much when I discovered it that I burned myself out on beets. LOL!.

    Honestly never had them "just" plain. I always have olive oil, salt, and pepper.

    Oops, I wasn't clear--by plain I meant with just olive oil and salt and pepper. I was a little unsure of the lemon juice, etc.

    i love roasted beets but have never made them for myself. Only bought canned. Thanks for the recipe. I usually order whenever I see them on a menu at a restaraunt. Love beet salads.

    I have never roasted a beet. I might try this recipe. But are they good just plain roasted?


    Beets are delicious just plain roasted by themselves. I normally take a beet scrub it down, cut it into qtrs and wrap up in foil with a little drizzle of olive oil. I roast it at 375, and check it around 25mins. Then I check every 5 minutes until it's soft. Sometimes I just eat it like this. Sometimes I sprinkle with salt and pepper and balsamic vinegar, or slice and throw in a salad. But they are delicious just plain and by themselves also!

    I love beets but have only had them pickled or in a salad from a salad bar. Oh and Beet Jelly. But I've never thought to roast them. It sounds intriguing.

    I cover 3 beets in aluminum foil + 1 butternut squash (sliced in half, brush with olive or walnut oil, and placed meaty side down) on a cookie sheet. Bake at 350-375 for 1 hour.
    Scoop out the squash into a bowl. Peel off the beet skin and cube beets. Add to squash. Top with feta cheese and chopped walnuts. Go amazingly good!!
