QUICK ROASTED BEET SLICES

I don’t peel them and I don’t worry too much about a little variation in thickness. The thin ones get really crisp and the slightly thicker ones have a bit more chew but by all means be uniform if you’d like.

Ingredients:

3 medium beets, scrubbed but not peeled

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon salt

Directions:

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Cut beets in half lengthwise and then turn the cut side down and slice the beet halves thinly. A little variation in thickness is fine but keep the slices to 1/4 inch or under.

In a medium bowl toss the slices with the oil and salt. Spread on sheet pans in a single layer and roast for 15 minutes or until they’re done to your liking. Enjoy as a snack, side dish, add to salads, etc.
