Preparation Instructions
- 1
Prepare the Beets
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the beets and trim the greens, leaving about an inch of the stems. Wrap the beets in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.

Cook the Greens
While the beets are roasting, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the fresh greens and sauté until wilted, about 4-5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper.

Combine and Serve
Once the beets are done roasting, let them cool slightly, then peel and chop them into bite-sized pieces. Add the beet pieces to the skillet with the greens. Drizzle with lemon juice and toss to combine. If desired, sprinkle feta cheese on top before serving.
