A few weeks ago, we took a class at a local culinary school. The focus was healthy eating, and we were able to enjoy a few snacks when we arrived. Laid out in front of us were beautiful piles of bright green kale chips and crisp orange sweet potato chips. I thought to myself I’d just have a bite of each, but that turned into a handful. Everyone was obsessed with these healthy snack replacements, so we came up with our own recipe as soon as we got back.
These oven-baked sweet potato chips can be sliced by hand, but we used the SaladXpress™ Food Processor to slice the chips directly into a large bowl. We then tossed them with olive oil and salt, and baked them until crisp. Waiting a few minutes for the chips to cool helped them become crunchy, and then it was time to dig in. Try these sweet potato chips at home as a healthy alternative to your usual bagged snacks.
