Beets, besides being low in calories, and a great source of nutrients including fiber, folate, and vitamin C, are super delicious and versatile in your cooking arsenal. With so many healthy properties we should incorporate them more often in your diet.
I always enjoyed them. Cold is my favorite way to enjoy them.
This is a very old and super easy recipe that we enjoy often. I really enjoy sweet onions, and it marries well with the beets here.
As you may notice I have not added oil to the recipe. The beets and onions have so many natural juices that there was no need to.
TIP: The beets and onions can be roasted 2 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator covered. Yellow onions are delicious as well, I do happen to prefer Sweet Vidalia onions.

2 1/2 pound beets, scrubbed, leaving 1-inch of the stem attached

1 1/2 pound sweet yellow onions
-
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar or to taste

3 tablespoons fresh thyme or to taste

In a bowl toss the beets with the vinegar and salt and pepper to taste, add the onions and 2 tablespoons of the fresh thyme. Toss the mixture gently.
