Roasted Beets with Orange Gremolata and Goat Cheese image

My grandma always grew beets then pickled or canned them, but I prefer to prepare them differently. I like these roasted beets in the winter but they can be enjoyed all year with the addition of fresh herbs and tangy goat cheese. -Courtney Archibeque, Portland, Oregon

I followed the recipe exactly and the beets were still hard and undercooked. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This recipe was a little too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred a different type of cheese, like a feta or a blue cheese.
