Ingredients

8 carrots, or more to taste, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 medium beets, trimmed and scrubbed
2 tablespoons honey, or more to taste
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Wrap beets in aluminum foil and place in a baking dish. Toss carrots with oil and put in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Place beets in the preheated oven and roast for 1 hour. Add carrots to the oven and roast alongside the beets for another 30 minutes. Remove beets and set aside to cool. Check carrots to see if they are tender; roast up to 20 minutes more if necessary.
Peel and chop beets into 1-inch pieces.
Combine balsamic vinegar and honey in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add beets and carrots, and simmer until sauce is thickened and vegetables are glazed, 5 to 10 minutes. Serve.
