Roasted Beet Noodles with Onions and Sweet Orange Glaze

By Micki Brown
Serves 4

Ingredients:

¼ cup apple cider vinegar

Juice of 1 large sweet orange (my favorite is blood orange)

2 tbsp pure maple syrup

1 tsp Dijon mustard

1 tsp orange zest

1 bunch medium sized beets, tops removed, peeled and spiralized

1 medium yellow onion, sliced

2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Sea salt and pepper to taste

Drizzle of citrus infused olive oil (plain will work if you don’t have citrus infused)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a large skillet, heat the 2 tbsp olive oil, and then add the onions and sauté over medium-low heat until they are slightly browned. Once done, drain on a paper towel and set aside. Place the apple cider vinegar, orange juice, maple syrup, Dijon mustard, orange zest, salt and pepper into a sauce pan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for about 15 minutes.

While the glaze is cooking, place the spiralized beets on a rimmed baking tray and drizzle with citrus infused olive oil, then sprinkle with some salt and pepper. Place in the oven and roast for 8-10 minutes. When done, place the beets on a serving platter, drizzle with the orange glaze, top with browned onions. Serve and enjoy.
