Wash your beets
Cut the beet greens off leaving 3 inches of stem. (Save the beet greens for a different recipe)
Leave the long pointy portion on to hold the juices in

Drizzle olive oil on the beets and be generous
Salt the beets
Cover baking dish with foil and put it all into the oven
Roast for 30 minutes
Remove from oven, flip the beets over, cover again with foil and return to oven for another 15 minutes
Test the beets with a cake tester by putting it into the biggest beet. If it is too hard to spear the beet, place back in the oven for additional 15 minutes
Once they are done, let the beets cool for 5 to 10 minutes or until you can handle them comfortably
Don some gloves, grab a paring knife, pick up a beet and cut off the ends off of it, discard ends
