Beet Fries with Maple Mustard Mayo


When you saw the beets did you think, "Yuck, beets"? Yet here you are. 

Not all beets taste like dirt!

This is a recipe of sorts, but it is more of a suggestion. Give it a try, you might be pleasantly surprised! 

Ingredients
(For the Fries)
2-3 Med BEETS
2 TBS Olive Oil
1/2 tsp garlic powder
Salt + pepper (lots)!

(For the sauce)
2 TBS mayo
1 TBS spicy mustard
1 TBS maple syrup

If you have an unconquerable  fear of beets, you can use any root vegetable to make the fries - or a combo!

Heat oven to 425˚F.

Peel the beets. Slice beets into several flat sections ~1/4" wide. Slice each again into thin strips resembling fries (the best you can)
Toss with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Lay out on parchment on a cookie sheet and place in heated oven for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, add mustard, maple, and mayo together in a small bowl. Combine well.

Turn fries after 20 minutes. Remove when crispy and browned on the ends.

Serve with mayo!
