Roasted Golden Beets with Balsamic Glaze.  

Roasted Golden Beets with Balsamic Glaze - Delicious and beautiful golden beets, oven roasted, and drizzled with extra virgin olive oil and balsamic glaze. These are perfectly roasted beets! You can use them in so many recipes!

Before we get going here, I wanted to say that some of the food and recipes you’ll be seeing here on the blog for the next 30 days are recipes that I prepped, tested and photographed before Tuesday (some a while ago and some just on Monday!). The blog will not be Whole 30 100% of the time! I have some excellent sweet treats and recipes coming your way so don’t worry!

Hey guys! So, I’m on Day 2 of The Whole 30 . . and went a little crazy buying every vegetable known to man a few days ago. These beets I actually purchased on Saturday at Whole Foods. .  when I saw them, I grabbed them. It took me forever to find yellow beets (or golden beets) here in Madison.

I have to show another angle to celebrate these beauties in all their glory. I think beets are so pretty and this was actually my first time roasting them myself.

How to cook golden beets

There are a few ways to cook golden beets before applying the balsamic glaze. 1) you can place the beets in a shallow baking dish, drizzle on some extra virgin olive oil, salt and other seasonings and then cover the entire baking dish with foil or 2) what I did here: drizzle on some extra virgin olive oil and wrap each beet individually with foil. The temp also varies. I roasted mine at 375 degrees, as opposed to 400 because I didn’t want to scorch them. But you know your oven best, so start with 375 and see how it goes.

Once they are done, you should be able to very easily scrape or peel off the outer skin. And for this yellow beet (above), when I opened the foil, as you can see here, some of the skin was already coming off.

I used a spoon to scrape the skin off. So easy!

With roasted beets, you don’t need a lot for maximum flavor because you really want to just enjoy the taste of the yellow beets. I simply sliced mine, and served them on a bed of greens, and drizzled extra virgin olive oil, salt and balsamic glaze (you can certainly just use balsamic vinegar). I devoured these roasted golden beets with balsamic glaze on Monday . . so the balsamic glaze was a-ok!
