Homemade crunchy beetroot chips

Everybody feels like munching every now and then. Tasty snacks don’t have to be only fatty and unhealthy. Lately I fell in love with this version of healthy chips. I have them to complement my main dish or just on their own. No big preparation, not much time needed. Change your ordinary potato chips for this healthy snack. Beetroot is high in potassium, vitamin C and folate.




All you need is: 
Fresh beetroots 
Sea salt 
Olive oil

Preheat your oven on 160 degrees C. Wash the beetroots carefully. You don’t have to peel the skin off unless is very hard or not very nice. With sharp knife (carefully!) slice them the thinnest you can. The thinner they will be the faster they will bake and most importantly the crunchier they become. So the time in the oven really depends on how thin your beetroot chips are sliced. Then toss them with little bit of olive oil and place them on baking dish one next to another. Bake in the oven aprox. 10 minutes or until nice and crunchy. Be careful not to burn them.  :) Once they are done sprinkle them with sea salt. If you do this while they are still hot the salt will stick to them better. Now just sit back and enjoy the crunch.
Have a fit day!
