Roasted Beet Chips

Every family has that one food that never survives long enough to even be put on a plate, right? Well, for my family, roasted beets is that food.

I've always been a fan of beets in any form- pickled, plain, canned, cooked, cold.. you name it. Eating them like this, easily takes the cake as my favorite!



They're super easy too! 


Here's what you'll need:
- Fresh beets, peeled (I just use a traditional kitchen peeler, some people use a knife- do what's comfortable)
- Parchment Paper or Cookie Sheet with non-stick cooking spray
- Sea Salt (optional)


Here's how they're made:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees
2. Slice peeled beets to about 1/8" thick using *Mandoline (*Affiliate Link) or knife (try to get them as uniform as possible!) **Don't have time to peel and slice your own? Use canned and follow baking time for crispy chips below!
3. Spread beet slices on baking sheet lined with parchment paper or sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. 
4. OPTIONAL: Sprinkle with sea salt to taste
5. Bake 15 minutes, rotate baking sheet, bake 15 minutes longer.
*We like ours to still be soft and chewy, but if you want yours to be more on the crispy side, extend baking time to 30 min, rotate and bake, checking after 15 minutes and continuing to bake until they have reached your desired crispness. 



That's it! 

Seriously, so easy and SO delicious! 

These can be used as an awesome replacement for crackers if you make them crispy (Or keep them soft and use them as "wraps" or just top them and eat with a fork!). Simply bake and top with crumbled goat cheese and some crushed walnut sprinkles or get creative with your own toppings!
