Balsamic Roasted Beets and Onions
August 26, 2009 • Vegetables
I’ve been working really hard this summer to make sure that I eat all of the vegetables from my CSA farm (and my own garden) each week. In the process, I tend to stick the things I know won’t spoil to the back of my crisper, and on the top of that list is beets. I love them, just don’t know that I can eat them every week, so I’ve been putting off cooking them. No more!
I’m trying to eat less “bad” food (no more Ben & Jerry’s each night), so I figured the sweet taste of caramelized beets would be a good diversion, if not entire substitute, for ice cream. (Does that sound like a stretch to you? I negotiate like this with myself when I need to lose a few pounds!)
