  • 2 tablespoons hemp hearts (optional)

Instructions

Notes

  • How to roast beets: preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Scrub beets to remove any dirt and then loosely wrap each beet individually in aluminum foil. Bake for 45-75 minutes or until tender when pierced with a fork. Baking time varies on the size of the beets.
  • How to steam beets: add water to a medium-sized saucepan and add steamer basket. Peel and chop beets. Add to steamer basket, cover pan with lid. Cook for 20-25 minutes or until beets are tender when poked with a fork.
