- 8 medium beets washed
- 1/4 cup light olive oil or other light tasting vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup mixed fresh herbs chopped
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup vegan mayo
- 1 Tablespoon yellow mustard

- 1 Tablespoon agave or more to taste
Ingredients
Sweet Mustard Sauce
|
|
- Heat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Wash your beets and cut into small chunks. You don't need to peel them, as there is a lot of goodness in the skin.
- In a small bowl, combine the oil with the chopped fresh herbs.
- Toss the oil over chopped beets to coat them.
- Spread the coated beets on a baking sheet and allow to cook until beets are fork-tender. Stir occasionally.
- When beets are tender, sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
- Eat as is, or drizzle with a Sweet Mustard Sauce or a Lemon Tahini Sauce.
- Just mix all the ingredients together and adjust to taste. Thin out with a little water, if necessary.
- Drizzle the sauce over the beets and eat while warm. Enjoy!
This combination of herbs would be great on roasted potatoes, cauliflower, brussel sprouts, carrots... Try growing these herbs on your window ledge so they are handy! Experiment and enjoy!
