Roasted Beets with Goat Cheese

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.

Peel the beets and chop them into 3/4-inch cubes. Arrange in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet.

Drizzle the beets with the olive oil. Sprinkle with the salt and black pepper. Use a rubber spatula to toss the beets until they are evenly coated.

Roast the beets on middle rack of oven, stirring twice through the cook time, until they are fork-tender and slightly caramelized, 45-55 minutes.

Check to see that beets are done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.

Allow the beets to cool for 10 minutes, then transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with crumbled goat cheese and chopped fresh dill, if desired. Serve immediately.
