Chef's Note

Roasted beets make a great fall side dish. Although bunch beets are normally smaller than storage beets, they still vary in size so cook time will depend on how large they are. 

Spoon remaining herb spread onto a piece of plastic wrap. Roll up into a log; store in freezer for future use.
This compound butter is delicious over seafood, grilled steak or steamed vegetables.

- 2 bunches red beets
- 1 tbsp (15 mL) olive oil
