Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Rinse and scrub the red and golden beets under cold water to remove dirt. Do not peel them at this stage.
Wrap each beet individually in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet.
Roast the beets in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a knife slides easily into the center of each beet.
While the beets are roasting, prepare the herb vinaigrette. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, parsley, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.
Once the beets are roasted, carefully unwrap them and let them cool until they are safe to handle.
Using a paper towel or your hands, rub the skin off each beet. The skin should easily slide off. If needed, rinse under cold water to remove any remaining pieces.
Cut each beet into wedges or slices and place them in a serving bowl.
Drizzle the herb vinaigrette over the sliced beets and gently toss until evenly coated.
Serve immediately or refrigerate the dish for up to 2 hours and serve chilled.
