Food: Roasted Garlic and Beets with Greens

Beets are tough little suckers so it takes an hour for them to cook throughout. We either roast them or boil them. We've heard of something called a 'microwave' but believe it's just a fad. 
Beet greens are really tasty to sauté and add to the mix. Salt, pepper, vinegar.
