Savor sweet-and-tangy roasted beets with basil and vinegar.
Ingredients:
  • 2 lb small beets (1 1/2 to 2 inches in diameter)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin or regular olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 425°F. Trim beet tops, leaving 2 inches attached. Wash the beets and keep them whole with root ends intact.
  • Spread the beets evenly in a 13x9-inch pan. Season with salt and pepper, then generously drizzle with oil.
  • Roast beets uncovered for about 40 minutes, until tender. Allow the beets to cool for about 30 minutes until they are easy to handle. Peel the beets, remove the root ends, and slice them into 1/2-inch slices.
  • Combine vibrant beets, fragrant basil, and tangy vinegar in a medium bowl. Enjoy either warm or at room temperature.
