The ingredients for Oven Roasted Fresh Beets are:

3 cups fresh raw red beets, topped & peeled (use a potato peeler), cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 Tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar (Bragg's Organic)
1/4 tsp Fresh Ground Black Pepper
1/2 tsp Mrs. Dash Table Blend
1 tsp garlic powder or 1 ? 2 cloves of fresh garlic, pressed

Salt to taste (beets have about 50 - 60 mgs of naturally occurring sodium per 1/2 cup)

Here is how you make Oven Roasted Fresh Beets:

Preheat Oven to 375 F.Line large baking sheet with foil, or use a glass 9X13 baking pan (don't line with foil) . . . I prefer to use a 10X14 stoneware lasagna pan, works quite well!!!In a large bowl, toss everything together until the beets are well coated. Lightly spray or coat the baking pan of your choice with oil.Arrange beets in a single layer in the baking pan and cover with foil. Bake for 20 minutes, then uncover and bake until tender and golden around the edges (how does one know if a red beet is "golden"? You can just tell; the more "golden" they are the more caramelized/sweeter they will be). This will be about 20 ? 30 minutes more* stirring every 10 minutes. Serve as soon as you can when they are "golden"! They are better warm . . . you can also serve chilled on a salad.* if after 20 ? 30 minutes everything still seems a bit wet, turn the broiler on (450F) for about 5 minutes to brown the beets and dry up some of the juice that?s in the pan. This seems to make them a bit more flavorful and yummy!ENJOY!!!Makes about 6 1/2 cup servings.Number of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user BBQTOFU.
