Roasted Beet and Goat Cheese Dip image

A hit of roasted garlic and balsamic vinegar cuts the sweetness of the beets and adds a rich depth of flavor perfect for serving as an appetizer. Serve with crackers, pretzels, and sliced fresh vegetables as desired. We served ours with gluten free pretzels and it was a hit!

Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 medium beets
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 pinch salt to taste
1 head garlic
½ cup goat cheese, divided
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, plus more for drizzling
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon dried rosemary
½ teaspoon ground thyme
2 tablespoons slivered almonds, toasted
4 leaves fresh basil, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Rub beets with olive oil, season with salt, and wrap in foil. Cut the top off garlic and drizzle with olive oil and salt. Wrap garlic tightly in foil. Place beets and garlic on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Roast in the preheated oven until garlic is golden and soft and beets are completely fork-tender, about 45 minutes. Remove from oven and cool for 15 to 20 minutes. Peel beets and cut into large chunks. Remove 2 tablespoons of goat cheese and set aside.
  • Reserve 1 tablespoon goat cheese for topping; place the rest in a food processor. Add roasted beets and garlic, 2 tablespoons olive oil, balsamic vinegar, sea salt, pepper, rosemary, and thyme in a food processor; process until very smooth, about 1 minute, scraping sides of the bowl as needed. Adjust seasoning to taste and spoon into a shallow serving dish.
  • Sprinkle with the reserved goat cheese, slivered almonds, and basil leaves. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar and olive oil.

This dip was a bit too runny for my taste. I think I would have preferred it if it was thicker.

I found this dip to be a bit bland. I think it could have used more seasoning.

This dip was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it if the beets were roasted for a shorter amount of time.
