Alright, who doesn’t like potato chips?? I can admit I’m not a huge potato chip fan for the simple fact I don’t go down the chip aisle at the grocery store and because they aren’t good for you. But when I found out that making potato chips was so simple and easy, I had to give it a try. It’s perfect for a quick snack when you just want something crunchy. And it’s a great replacement for those greasy chips you buy from the store! Enjoy!

Notes:

*For all of you college students out there who only have a microwave, have no fear you can make these in the microwave too!! Follow the instructions as is but instead of putting them in the oven, microwave them for about 6 min flipping them halfway.
*For a different taste try seasoning with Parmesan cheese and paprika, lemon zest and chives, or curry and cayenne.
