Cut and diced style beets are a perfect compliment to a meat or fish entree. They’re also an excellent source of fiber and a half-cup serving of beets contains just 35 calories! Baking them this way makes them a little sweeter and they are much easier to handle.
Ingredients
- 6 fresh beets
- 1 tbsp Splenda
- Disposable gloves
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Step 2
Trim roots and stem but don't do anything else to the beets. Bake whole beets on a foil-lined cookie sheet until tender when pierced with a fork, about two hours.
Step 3
Cool and then peel, cut in chunks and sprinkle with splenda.
Step 4
Don't forget to wear disposable gloves to keep your hands from being dyed red!
