Ingredients

  • 1 red beet, washed & scrubbed well
  • 1 gold beet, washed & scrubbed well
  • Sea salt, for sweating plus more when serving **Sprinkle a little bit of salt on each slice of beet to sweat out the liquid.
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Freshly cracked pepper, to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place a wire cooling rack into a baking sheet. 
  2. Wash and scrub the beets thoroughly so you can leave the peel on for extra fiber. Slice them 1/16th inch thick with a mandolin or a very sharp knife. 
  3. Pat the beets lightly with a paper towel to remove excess moisture, sprinkle them with a little bit of sea salt, toss and let them sit on paper towels for about 15 minutes. This allows more moisture to release from the beets, which will help your chips get crispy.
  4. Toss the beet chips with olive oil until well coated.
  5. Place the beet chips in a single layer on the wire rack. 
  6. Bake until the edges curl up and they are golden and crisp, 25-30 minutes, rotating pans once halfway through baking. Blot with paper towels to remove any excess oil, season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste, and cool on a wire rack.
  7. Serve as is or with your favorite chip dip. Enjoy.
