- 4 small red beets
- 4 small golden beets
- 2 tablespoons tahini
- 4 tablespoons fresh orange juice
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon honey
- Sesame seeds for serving
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Peel and chop the beets. Place them on a long piece of foil and wrap them, enclosing them into a packet.
Place the foil packet on a baking sheet and bake for 45 to 50 minutes, until beets are soft, cooked through, and juices are seeping out of them. Remove from oven and allow beets to cool.
In a small bowl, whisk together the last 8 ingredients until smooth and creamy.
Serve the beets either warm or cold with dressing drizzled on top.
Other serving options: You can also turn this into a green salad by adding mixed greens, avocado, red onion, chopped walnuts, and any other salad add-ins. If you choose to do this, double or triple the dressing recipe.
