Golden Beet Chips

March 12, 2009

I had one lovely Golden beet in my hand and I wondered what to do with it. I decided to slice it up with my mandoline and make beet chips - something I'd never done before. I turned the oven on to about 325 F and laid them on a Silpat mat. I sprayed the slices lightly with olive oil and gave them a sprinkling of sea salt. It only took a few minutes (with an eagle eye on them in case they burned, which they quickly do) and the result were crisp, sweet beet chips. The perfect healthy snack!

What a great idea! Would this work with red beets as well?

I'm not a big fan of beets because I never know what to do with them. Beet chips I've got to try. Thanks!
