Beet Dip With Cotija Cheese Recipes

BEET DIP WITH COTIJA CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Place beets on a large sheet of foil and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and rub to coat beets evenly. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Bring foil up and over beets to fully wrap, creating a packet. Place on a baking sheet to catch any drips. Bake for 1 hour, and allow to cool completely in foil packet. Open packet and rub skins off of beets using a paper towel. Discard foil and excess juices.
