Red & Golden Beets
The past couple weeks, we have been enjoying Nakoa & Ava's red & golden beets (Cabbage Creek Farms) -- delicious! I found a recipe of Martha Stewart's that was nice. The beets are roasted & served with a mint-yogurt sauce. We thought the beets were great with or even without the sauce.
Roasted Beets with Mint-Yogurt Sauce
1 bunch of beets
1 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
Salt & Pepper
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1 Tbsp fresh mint leaves, coarsely chopped
1/8 tsp ground cumin
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Cut off beet greens (put in a salad with romaine-- we did!) & scrub beets. Toss in olive oil & season with salt & pepper. Put in 9 x 13 pan. Cover with foil tightly & roast 45-60 minutes. Make sure you test them with a knife around 40 minutes & until done. Let cool until you can slip off the skins with a paper towel. Meanwhile, whisk up the sauce of yogurt, mint, cumin & lemon juice. Season with salt & pepper. Spoon over beets & enjoy!
