Roast Beets + Red Onions

Super Simple + Super Tasty

Beets Ingredients

• Large red beets or baby colored beets - quantity and colors are your choice

Pickled Onions Ingredients

• 1 large red onion, thinly sliced

• 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

• 1 Tbs maple syrup

• 1 1/2 tsps salt

• 1 cup water

• Optional: I like to add a Hibiscus tea bag to enhance the red color!

Instructions

• Mix all pickled onion ingredients and allow to marinate for a few hours (or days in the fridge)

• Wrap beets in foil and roast in 400º oven for one hour or more if the beets are really large

• Once cooled somewhat, but still warm, remove foil from beets, slide the skins off and cut into bite size pieces

• Add beets to the pickled onion mixture and allow to marinate, preferably overnight. The flavors are better the next day.

Notes

• To avoid red hands, use plastic gloves (or baggies) when peeling the beets
