Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 3 medium beets
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/10 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°. Line large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Clean and peel beets, then as thin as possible. Try to make the slices as even as possible to prevent some of cooking faster than other. I use a mandoline kitchen slicer to make it easier.
- Add slices to a large bowl, then toss with olive oil until they are completely and evenly coated.
- Sprinkle with salt and toss again.
- Line the beet slices evenly on the baking sheet. I like to add a bit of rosemary for added flavor.
- Bake for ~ 15 minutes, the flip and cook for ~5-10 more minutes. Watch the beets closely after flipping and returning to the oven as they can burn easily.
- – Remove from oven and enjoy
Notes
