How to Make Beets With Walnut Garlic Sauce

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and chop 1 lb beets into 1-inch cubes.
2. Roast beets on a baking sheet for 30-40 minutes, or until tender. Let cool slightly, then peel and roughly chop.
3. While beets roast, prepare the sauce: In a food processor, combine 1 cup walnuts, 4 cloves garlic, 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
4. Process until completely smooth, scraping down the sides as needed. Add 1-2 tablespoons of water if needed to reach desired consistency.
5. Gently combine the roasted beets with the walnut-garlic sauce in a large bowl.
6. Cover and let stand at room temperature for at least 2 hours, or preferably longer, to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled or at room temperature. Enjoy on its own or spread on pita bread!
