Roasted “Beets & Sweets”
Beets & Sweets
I think beets and sweet potatoes are my two favorite vegetables. Combine them with garlic, salt and some white onion and we have a winner…
This is something I would usually think to make in the fall or winter but had some beets and sweet potatoes both just sitting there on the table so I figured summer, why not…
Ingredients:
- 3 large beets or 5 medium beets, peeled and cut into chunks
- 3 medium sweet potatoes, cut into chunks
- 1 large white onion, cut in large pieces
- 4 cloves garlic, pressed
- salt and pepper to taste
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 370 degrees F
- Place chunked beets in a gallon ziplock bag with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 the pressed garlic and salt and pepper to taste. Shake well to coat beets. Place beets on a large baking sheet, single layer. bake for 20 min.
- Place chunked sweet potatoes and onion in large bowl add 2 tablespoons olive oil, rest of garlic, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix in bowl. Add beets from oven and toss to mix.
- Place beets and potatoes back on baking sheet and return to oven for 30- 40 mins or until veggies are tender and enjoy!

I am not much on beets, but I love the sweet potatoes. So much that I have to avoid them or I will eat too many. Looks good though.
