Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
The minute I tasted Terra chips, I wondered why we've been saddled under a plethora of potato and corn chips. Yes, both are good, but they aren't the only vegetables that taste utterly sinful when fried. In fact, other veggies can offer a lot more flavor without the aid of ten gallons of salt and faux seasonings.
With that in mind, I set out to make beet chips. I took some gold beets, peeled them, thinly sliced them, and then pat them dry with a paper towel while a small layer of oil was heated in a frying pan. Once the oil was nice and hot, I put a layer in at a time, flipped them, and let them fry until darker and slightly curled. When done, they were transferred to a paper towel, spray with a little salt, and then devoured.
