Roasted Beets and Carrots with Feta

October 12, 2018 by victor 14 Comments

Roasted Beets and Carrots with Feta on a blue serving platter with black rims.

My younger daughter loves roasted beets and carrots so I often make them as a side dish for many meat and poultry dishes. I like to roast them at a lower temperature, about 375F, covering with foil half way through. This allows for beets and carrots to come out tender while holding their shape and not looking all dried and shriveled. The veggies come out so tasty that I rarely have any leftovers. This is one of those perfect healthy dishes that even kids are fond of.

To add some zest to the dish, I like to throw in a handful of garlic cloves. Roasted garlic tastes absolutely delicious. But not everyone in the family likes it so I use whole cloves of garlic which can be picked out quite easily. I also like adding crumbled feta cheese for even more zing and to make sweet roasted beets and carrots taste more balanced.

    Roasted garlic is still garlic. Can I substitute shallots?

      Shallots will work. I’ve also tried fennel and liked it.

    Loved the recipe but dressed it a tad. Instead of Cilantro I used a Rainbow Mix of Microgreens along with Feta. Awesome taste!
