Bake until edges of beets begin to dry out, about 20 minutes. Uncover and rotate sheets. Bake 10 to 20 minutes, removing chips as they become lightened in color. Transfer to a wire rack; chips will crisp up as they cool.

• 2. Put a cookie wire rack on top of a cookie sheet if you don't have one than brush your cookie sheet with olive oil. Arrange beets on cookie sheet or wire rack if you have one. If you have a wire rack you don't have to turn the beets chips over half way through the cooking process. Brush beets with olive oil salt and pepper them on both sides.
• 3. Put in oven and bake for 30-35 minutes if you don't have a wire rack then after 15 minutes turn the beets over and cook for another 15-20 minutes. Take them out and let them cool and harden up and enjoy. You can do this with sweet potatoes, eggplants, zucchini possibilities are endless.

SWEET POTATO AND BEET CHIPS WITH GARLIC ROSEMARY SALT

Steps:

• Special Equipment: V-slicer or mandoline, deep-fry thermometer
• Wash the vegetables and dry very well. Set aside.
• In a small bowl combine the garlic, rosemary and salt. Set aside.
• Warm the oil in a large pot over high heat to 350 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, trim 1-inch off the end of each sweet potato. Using the V-slicer or mandoline, slice the sweet potatoes into very thin slices, about 1/8-inch thick. Trim 1-inch off the root end of the beets. Using the V-slicer or mandoline slice the beets into very thin slices, about 1/8-inch thick.
• When the oil is hot add about a quarter of the sweet potato slices. Let fry until golden and the bubbling has almost completely subsided, about 2 to 3 minutes. Using a mesh sieve or slotted spoon remove the chips to a paper-towel-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with some of the garlic, rosemary, and salt mixture. Continue with the remaining sweet potatoes.
• Transfer to a serving plate.
• Next, fry 1/4 of the beets. Let fry until curled at the edges and most of the bubbling has subsided, about 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer the beets to another paper-towel-lined baking sheet and sprinkle with salt mixture. Continue with the remaining beets. Let cool and transfer to a serving plate.

BEET CHIPS WITH ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
• Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Slice beets on thinnest setting using a mandolin. This gives you paper thin wafers that are relatively consistent in thickness. TIP: Use a glass or non-porous cutting board/mat. Beets stain surfaces! You can use red or yellow beets, or a mixture.
• Place sliced beets in a glass bowl and toss with EVOO and salt. Allow to sit for 20 minutes. This process (salt) draws excess moisture from the beets. Once 20 min have passed toss beets in their liquid and drain.
• Place slices in a single layer on parchment lined baking sheets. Sprinkle with a bit of sugar, this brings sweetness back out. Sprinkle with rosemary powder.
• Bake 30-50 minutes. Until crisp. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
• Place in air tight container with a silica packet. If you do not have some silica packets laying around (they come in jerky packages, etc.) make a small rice sock. This process keeps the chips crisp while in container rather than the chips absorbing the moisture from the air the rice/ silica do.

BEET CHIPS AND GOAT CHEESE DIP

Steps:

• directions: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Spray the rack with no stick spray. Peel the beets with a vegetable peeler. Carefully use a mandolin or a sharp knife to slice the beets into super thin (like less than 1/8 inch) rounds. Place all the rounds in a large bowl and drizzle on olive oil. You don't want to over saturate the beets, so just start with the listed amount above. Season the chips with a bit of garlic powder and smoked paprika. (I like to keep the salt until the end.) Place the beets on the wire racks in a single layer. Bake for 20 minutes, then rotate the sheets and if you have larger beet chips, you can flip with each with a pair of kitchen tongs. Bake for another 15 to 20 minutes - until the edges are getting dry and crisp. Watch closely - they can SO easily burn! Remove the sheets and sprinkle the chips with salt. Let them sit to cool completely - this is where they will crisp up and why you don't want to over-oil them! Once crisp, serve with the goat cheese dip. goat cheese dip Place the goat cheese, yogurt, herbs, salt, garlic powder and crushed red pepper in a food processor. Blend until combined, then with the processor still running, drizzle in the olive oil. You may need to scrape down the sides a few times to make sure everything is thoroughl

GUACAMOLE AND BAKED BEET CHIPS

Steps:

• For the beet chips: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F, or preheat a convection oven to 400 degrees F.
• Rinse and scrub the outsides of the beets. Carefully slice the beets into 1/16-inch-thick rounds using a mandolin slicer. Place in a large bowl and drizzle the olive oil over, turning to coat evenly. Lay out a single layer of beet slices on 2 baking sheets and sprinkle with freshly cracked pepper (don't add the salt at this point, as it will make the chips less crisp).
• Bake for 30 to 45 minutes for a regular oven, rotating the sheets from top to bottom halfway through. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes for a convection oven, rotating halfway through. The beets will be darkened around the edges and be mostly crisp; they will firm up a little bit more once cooled. Let the chips cool, and then transfer to a bowl. Repeat with the remaining beet slices. When they are all cooked, toss with salt to taste.
• For the guacamole: Mash the avocados with a fork or potato masher in a large bowl until slightly chunky. Stir in the cilantro, lime juice, tomatoes and onions. Season the guacamole with salt and pepper and garnish with olive oil.
• Serve a mound of guacamole in a bowl. Serve with the beet chips.

BEET LEATHER CHIPS

Steps:

• Roast beets by enclosing in foil and roast till tender.
• Or Steam: Fill the bottom of the steamer with 2 inches of water and bring to a rapid boil. Add beets, cover, and steam for 15 minutes. Beets are cooked when you can easily insert a fork or the tip or knife into the beet.
• Remove skin when cool to handle.
• Place beets into a blender.
• Spread thinly, about 4 inch thick. The outer edges will dry faster, so make the outside a little thicker, up to 3/8 inch. Use Excalibur Paraflexx sheets, parchment paper, or the fruit leather inserts that came with your dehydrator. Don't use waxed paper. Dehydrate for 8-10 hours. Peel away the paper store chips in airtight container.

BEET CHIPS

Steps:

• Peel beets. Using a mandoline or other manual slicer cut beets into paper-thin slices and transfer to a large bowl. Add cornstarch and toss well to coat.
• In a 3-quart saucepan heat oil until a deep-fat thermometer registers 350°F. Working in batches of 8 to 10 slices, separating them from one another, fry beets, turning once or twice, until crisp and beginning to shrivel, 30 seconds to 1 minute, making sure oil returns to 350°F before adding next batch. Transfer chips as fried with a large slotted spoon to paper towels to drain and season with salt. Beet chips may be made 12 hours ahead and kept, uncovered, at room temperature.

HUNTER'S BEET CHIPS

• slice your beets paper thin on a mandolin.
• Tarot root also can be done the same way.
• you can also use a potato peeler to peel strips of parsnips or sweet potato.
• Heat you vegetable oil to 350 deg.
• For beet or tarot chips, fry in batches flipping during cooking.
• For sweet potatoes and parsnips, drop shavings into hot oil and swirl carefully so they dont stick together.
• Cook till crisp.
• remove to a paper towel lined pan.
• Season immediately with salt.

FANTASTIC MICROWAVED BEET CHIPS

Steps:

• Slice beets very thin. I use a mandolin set at the thinnest setting.
• Brush a thin layer of oil in the bottom of a microwave safe pan. I use my pampered chef stoneware.
• Lay the beet slices in the pan, slightly overlapping. They will shrink significantly, so no need to leave "breathing" room.
• Sprinkle LIGHTLY with salt. Since they shrink so much, the salt taste will be more concentrated when done.
• Microwave on high. My first pan takes 6 minutes. Each pan full after takes 5 - 5 1/2 minutes, since the pan's hot.
• There's no need to re-oil the pan after the first set.
• Feel free to experiment with different flavors on the chips.
