¼ cup fresh parsley leaves
2 cloves garlic, peeled

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). Place each beet on a square of aluminum foil, drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil, and sprinkle with 1/4 tsp salt. Wrap each beet tightly in the foil and arrange on a baking sheet.
2
Roast the beets for 45–55 minutes, until a paring knife slides into the center of the largest beet with no resistance. Remove from the oven and let the foil packets rest, still sealed, for 10 minutes.
