Tin Foil
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees
Cut the stems and tails off of the beets. Scrub off any dirt.
Wrap each beet with tin foil. You don't need to over wrap your beets or waste tin foil!
Line a baking sheet with tin foil to help clean up any leaks. Place wrapped beets on the prepared baking sheet. Put the baking sheet in the oven for about 1 hour.
Check the beets at about 30 minutes. Smaller beets will roast more quickly.
The beets are ready when you can easily slide a fork in an out.
Unwrap the beets and let cool.
Once cooled enough to handle, the skin of each beet should easily peel off. Your hands may discolor. Sometimes the skin doesn't slip off, use a vegetable peeler as needed.
Cut the skinned beets in circular slices, or wedges and enjoy!
