Really Big Beets image

Here is a show-stopping main course to please vegans and vegetarians - and one that even meat-eaters will want to eat. Diana Jarvis, a Manhattan resident who submitted this recipe to the Well blog's Vegetarian Thanksgiving feature in 2014, says to roast the beets for a long time, to achieve a giant, steak-like fist of vegetable, rich and salty-sweet. One hour works - two hours is better.

The beets were a bit too tough for my taste. I would recommend peeling them before roasting them next time.

The beets were a bit undercooked for my taste. I would recommend roasting them for a few minutes longer next time.

These beets were so good! I've never had them this way before. The goat cheese and walnuts were a great addition. I will definitely be making this again.
