Notes
- Vegan Option: Substitute honey with agave or maple syrup to make this dish vegan-friendly.
- Even Cooking: To ensure even cooking, cut the golden beets and shallots into similar sizes. This helps them roast evenly and become tender at the same time.
- Timing Variations: The total cook time may vary slightly depending on the size of the beets.
- Storage: Store leftover roasted golden beets and shallots in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3–4 days.
- Reheating: Reheat leftovers in the oven or microwave until warmed through for best results.
