Ingredients

If you never thought your vegetables could satisfy a sweet tooth, think again. Choose small beets for this simple roasted beets recipe or candy beets if you can get them, and enjoy vegetables in a way you never have before.
1/2 pound beet roots, scrubbed and thinly sliced
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. chopped fresh thyme
1 Tbsp. olive oil
Beet Candy

Directions

1. Preheat the over to 450 degrees F. Line a baking pan with a piece of parchment paper.
2. Put the beet slices in a mixing bowl and toss thoroughly with the salt, thyme, and olive oil. Arrange the slices evenly on the pan.
3. Roast until the beets are tender and shrunken (10-18 minutes).
4. Serve warm or cold. Warm, they'll be crispy like chips. Cool, they'll be more like fruit leather.
