DO you like Beets???
I don't know if you remember the diet where you had to eat beets and hot dogs, yes I did this several times, and every since then I haven't touched beets! Can't stand them pickled for sure!!
But since I've been doing the Ultimate Reset, I've decided to give them a try again and I've come across two recipes that I adore!
The first one is a Roasted Root Medley.
INGREDIENTS
- 1/4 medium sweet potato, cut into 1-inch chunks
- 1/2 medium carrot, cut into 1-inch chunks
- 1/2 medium beet, cut into 1-inch chunks
- 1/4 medium onion, peeled, cut into large wedges
- 2 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil
- Himalayan salt (to taste; optional)
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Combine yam, carrot, beet, onion, oil, and salt (if desired); mix well. Arrange vegetables in a single layer on baking sheet. Bake for 50 minutes, or until tender, turning once or twice.
It's a simple recipe and so DELICIOUS!!!
