Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs beets, try to pick similarly sized ones
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1/4 cup port wine
  • 1/3 cup orange juice
  • 1/2 tsp thyme

Directions:

  1. Line a roasting pan with aluminum foil. Place the scrubbed beets in the pan, cover with foil, and roast in a 400°F oven until they can be easily pierced, about 1 hour. (Or, you can wrap each beet in foil.).
  2. While beets are roasting, mix together all remaining ingredients in a saucepan, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for about 5 minutes. Set aside.
  3. Peel and trim roasted beets. Grate on the large holes of a grater into a big bowl. Pour the warm dressing over the warm shredded beets - you may not need all the dressing.
  4. Serve warm or at room temperature.
  5. Note: I generally have around 1/3 cup dressing left. I add 1/2 teaspoons of minced garlic and use it to glaze pork chops or squash or sweet potatoes that I am roasting.
