I love fresh garden foods, especially ones as hearty as beets and carrots. This is a great way to enjoy the end-of-the-garden harvest. Plus, the ginger adds great flavor and health benefits. —Courtney Stultz, Weir, Kansas

Ingredients

1-1/2 cups thinly sliced fresh carrots
1-1/2 cups thinly sliced fresh beets
4 teaspoons olive oil
1-1/2 teaspoons honey
1-1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
3/4 teaspoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon chili powder

Preheat oven to 400°. Place vegetables in a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Whisk remaining ingredients; drizzle over vegetables. Toss to coat. Bake until carrots and beets are crisp-tender, 15-20 minutes.

Test Kitchen tips

Whisk a splash of apple cider vinegar into the sauce for a little tang.

Increase the cooking time if you're using larger beet slices.

What a great combination of flavors! My husband and I prefer our veggies cooked a bit more, so I kept them in the oven until they started to caramelize...so good! We grow our own beets and carrots, so I know we'll be enjoying this often!

I made the recipe as written. I love beets and really enjoyed it, and my husband doesn't like beets but did eat them made this way. Hence, 4 stars.
