How to Make Homemade Healthy “Chips”
At the end of the day, the most nutritious substitute for potato chips is a homemade veggie “chip.” Lucky for you, they’re super easy to make and can be customized as you please.
Step 1: Choose your veggie (or fruit). If you can roast it, you can most likely make it into a chip. Our favorite veggies to chip-ifiy include sweet potatoes, zucchini, kale and apples.
Step 2: Prepare the veggie. Wash the veggie of choice, then slice it into very thin rounds. A mandoline is the easiest tool for the job, but if you have a very sharp kitchen knife, that will work too. Toss them in a drizzle of olive oil and season with kosher salt.
Step 3: Heat the oven. Preheat the oven to 250°F and line a few baking sheets with parchment paper. Spread the vegetable slices into a single layer on the baking sheets.
Step 4: Bake. Transfer the baking sheets to the oven and bake until the veggie chips are dry and crisp but not burnt. The time will depend on what vegetable you choose, but a good rule of thumb is to set a timer for 30 minutes and check on it regularly.
