I've heard good things about it ... and have juiced some beets ... with celery and apples.  Not bad.  Just - a real mess dealing with fresh beets.   I do like beets though, but usually just buy the canned variety.

 

I've never seen the bottled beet juice ... I'll have to another look.  I'm a big fan of carrot/mango/ginger juice from the supermarket.

I enjoy pickled beets and roasted fresh beets from time to time, but don't want to eat either of them on a daily basis.  In order to get the health benefits from beets, I take 1000 mg. of beet root (capsules) twice daily.

Do  u peel them before you roast them in th  oven?

 

Love beets and will have try try making them on my own. Seen recipes for cooking in water but the oven sounds much easier.

@shoppinggirl59 - You can do it either way.  Peel first and roast.  Or you can roast them first, either on an open baking sheet or wrapped in foil, and when they're done let them cool down enough to handle them and the skin should rub off.  Use paper towel or a dedicated pair of textured rubber gloves to prevent magenta colored fingers!
