Roasted Sugar Stripe Beets

I know what you’re thinking…who in the heck wants a recipe for beets? Well, these aren’t those nasty canned beets your mother used to force down your throat. I promise. The candy stripe beet, otherwise known as the candy cane, bullseye, or Chioggia beet is considered an heirloom veggie from Northern Italy. It sports a sweeter flavor in addition to a fabulous Dr. Seuss themed attire.

The first is a shot of my baby beets before they were roasted but not before I slathered them in olive oil, salt, pepper, and organic thyme.

After trimming the ends of the beets a bit and cutting them into quarters, I put them in a 9×13 glass pan and roasted them at 400 degrees for 40 minutes. Once roasted, I tossed them with a splash of vinegar and orange juice before serving.
