    Prior to making this side dish, I did not know how to roast beets or even how to cook fresh beets at all! My beet-eating experience had been limited to putting fresh beets in a smoothie and a certain canned beet dish that my mom is fond of making (that I didn’t care for as a kid AT ALL).

    Learning how to roast beets and enjoying this oven roasted beets and brussels sprouts recipe has been a game-changer for me. It always feels good when you find a new way to incorporate fresh vegetables into your diet.

    Now that I know how to roast beets and flavor them well, I can eat them without wishing I was eating something else. Who else is guilty of that when it comes to eating your veggies? Hopefully, it’s not just me. 

    How to Cook Fresh Beets and Brussels

    Ingredients:

    • 3 large red beets, cleaned, peeled, and cut into equally thick slices
    • 1 pound fresh Brussels sprouts, ends removed and cut in half

    • 1 red onion, outer skin removed, sliced and quartered
    • 6 sprigs fresh thyme
    • ½ T. pink Himalayan sea salt
    • 1 t. fresh cracked black pepper

      Brussels took 30 min beets took 45 minutes and still needed more. Beets need to be cut smaller than pictured to cook at same rate. Or cook separate in 2 different ovens.
