No matter which way you look at it, beets are a remarkable root vegetable. They’re as show stopping as they are delicious. Beets are also extremely versatile and highly accessible. They’re packed with essential vitamins, minerals, and plant compounds, some of which even have medicinal properties. Over the next month, recipe creator and beet lover Christiann Koepke will be sharing with us a few of the many ways you can use beets. To start, roasted beet pizza!

This roasted beet pizza recipe is a fresh spin on the classic margarita. More days in life should include pizza! So, why not make it easy and healthy, with just 6 ingredients. Tip: swap the ricotta for your preferred dairy-free cheese (if you’d like). You can make your favorite homemade crust or, to save time, pick up a gluten-free option, like Manini’s (maninis.com). Lastly, feel free to roast extra beets while you’re at it. Use as much as you want on the pizza, and then pair the rest with a salad (up next in this series!).
