ROASTED BEETS WITH LEMON-THYME DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Trim stems off beets and place them onto the middle of a large piece of aluminum foil.

Cut peeled beets into chunks and place in a mixing bowl. In a small container with a tight fitting lid, combine olive oil, thyme, lemon juice, lemon zest and some salt and pepper. Close container and shake vigorously. Pour dressing over beets and toss to coat. Serve immediately or cover and keep in fridge until ready to serve.
