                       To make the chips:
                       1.  Preheat the oven to 350°F.
                       2.  Brush two rimmed baking sheets with coconut oil.
                       3.  Cut the beets into very thin slices. Place the beets in a large bowl,
                         and toss them with 1 tablespoon of coconut oil, salt, and pepper.
                       4.  Arrange the beets in one layer on the baking sheets. Place one pan

                       5.  Bake for 20 minutes, or until the edges begin to dry out. Rotate
                         the pans and bake for 10 to 15 more minutes, or until the edges
                         begin to brown.
                       6.  Transfer the beets to a wire rack; they will crisp up as they cool.
