Easy Roasted Beets Side Dish

Much like the bad rap peas and brussels sprouts get, I’m convinced people don’t like beets because they’ve simply never had them prepared properly.

Roasted Beets are amazing! Tender, rich and sweet. Then baked with an orange and maple glaze, this simple side dish is a sure winner and could possibly change your mind forever.

Since roasted beets are so easy to make and also store really well in the refrigerator up to a week, making this side dish is a breeze. You can either roast your beets right before making it, or grab some out of the fridge that have already been roasted. This dish comes together in minutes, with a short bake time.

Recipe Variations

If some of the ingredients for the sauce doesn’t float your boat, there are a few other options.

I’m convinced you’ll love this recipe as is, though. It’s so good!
