• 3 golden beets
• 5 red beets
• 1 large yellow onion, wedged
• 1 large red onion, wedged
• olive oil spray
• 1 tsp. fine sea salt

Instructions:

• 1. Preheat oven to 400*F.
• 2. Spray 1 or 2 baking pans with olive oil spray.
• 3. Gently scrub beets to remove all dirt. Cut off the greens and set aside to use another time (unless you already used them!).
• 4. Trim off ends and any spots. If preferred, peel, but you do not need to as long as you scrubbed them well and cut out any blemishes.
• 5. Cut beets into wedges of similar thickness (they do not need to be the same length).
• 6. Arrange along with the onions in one even layer on baking pans and spray again.
• 7. Sprinkle with sea salt. Bake for 30 minutes, stirring halfway through.
• 8. Depending on the thickness of your wedges, they may need to roast longer. If so, keep an eye on the onions, as they may roast slightly faster than beets.
• 9. Serve immediately.
