Ingredients
  

1 medium sweet potato

1 medium beet

1 medium zucchini

1 medium carrot

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

½ teaspoon sea salt

¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Optional: fresh herbs (such as rosemary, thyme, or parsley) for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper to make cleanup a breeze. This will also help prevent the veggie chips from sticking.

    Prepare the Vegetables: Carefully wash and peel the sweet potato and beet using a vegetable peeler. Using a mandoline slicer set to 1/8 inch or a sharp knife, slice all the vegetables into thin, even rounds. Consistent thickness ensures even cooking and maximizes crispiness.

      Toss in Seasoning: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced sweet potato, beet, zucchini, and carrot with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper. Toss the vegetables thoroughly to ensure every piece is coated with the oil and spices for optimal flavor.

        Arrange on Baking Sheets: Lay the seasoned veggie slices in a single layer across the prepared baking sheets, taking care not to overlap them. Overlapping can trap steam and prevent the chips from becoming crispy.

          Bake: Place the baking sheets into the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. About halfway through cooking, flip the veggie chips to ensure they cook evenly. Keep a close eye during the last few minutes, as cooking times may vary due to the thickness of your slices.

            Cool and Garnish: After baking, remove the chips from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for several minutes. They will continue to crisp up slightly as they cool. If desired, sprinkle your favorite fresh herbs over the chips for an aromatic touch just before serving.

              Serve: Enjoy your colorful and crunchy rainbow veggie chips as a delightful healthy snack on their own or paired with your favorite dip for a tasty treat!
