Liam Ate Beets
I am always searching for new ways to introduce or reintroduce veggies to Liam. He did not like the texture of cooked beets but he was having it in home made juices. However, I don't want to always hide vegetables but have Liam enjoy eating them all. The other day I came across the recipe for beet chips and Liam loved it. He ate 3 small beets this way. Brian and I liked it too. Here is the recipe:
Wash and peel 3-4 small beets.
Cut beets in 1/8" slices
Coat slices with olive oil and salt
Place on cookie sheet and bake it at preheated oven at 400 deg F.
Be careful not to burn since slices are thin.
Now, I am ready to make him kale chips. Will let you know how it went.

How long did you bake the beets for? I think I will make some beet chips this weekend since I got yet another bunch in the produce box last week.
ReplyDeleteI think we baked it for 12 min. You have to be very watchful as they burn easily especially if they are small beets. But they were delicious. We also made kale chips and took it to daycare. Liam really liked it. Ate a lot of it.
