We actually made these delicious roasted beets last week, but I have been a slacker poster lately! I have a back log of about 3 dishes that I hope to get up this week/weekend, so stay tuned.The recipe “Baked Beets with Balsamic Vinegar, Marjoram, and Garlic” is from Jamie Oliver (we modify slightly)
Ingredients:
1 lb fresh, raw beets, preferably golf ball size, scrubbed
10 cloves of garlic
1 handful fresh marjoram or sweet oregano, leaves picked from stems
Salt and freshly ground pepper
10 Tablespoons balsamic vinegar
6 Tablespoons olive oil
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400
line baking dish with tin foil, with enough on edges to fold up to cover beets
We peel the beets (Jamie Oliver does not)
If beets are larger than golf ball size, chop into smaller pieces
Place beets, garlic, and marjoram into foil lined dish
Season generously with salt & pepper and add balsamic vinegar & olive oil
Seal up tin foil around beets
Place in oven and bake for about 1 hour, or until tender
I could eat this every night! (sorry for the dark photo)

Mmmm I adore beets - roast beets are one of my favorites! Thanks for sharing this. If you haven't tried golden beets yet, you have to try those - even sweeter!!
Whole foods always has them.
