Garden to Table Roasted Beets

I was in the Super Market the other day and looked at a bunch of beets, there was 1 large beet and 2 small beets in a bunch and it was selling for $2.79 a bunch.  The thought ran through my mind how grateful I am that we have over a bushel of fresh beets ready for harvest in my garden.  Fresh roasted beets are delicious the roasting really brings out the earthy rich flavor of the beet.
