feel the beet [part deux]

just over a year ago i roasted my first beets.  this summer i grew some pitiful excuses for beet greens with liiiitle stringy roots attached.  no pics.  they went straight into the composter out of spite.  but the grocery store had giant beets on sale for about $4 a bag. 

is it a pound of chipotle burritoy goodness?  nope.  is it a small roasting chicken?  nope.  is it a surprise meatloaf?  nope..  its GINORMOUS beets!  jeez didnt you read the title?
