Homemade Sweet Potato Chips!

StephStepByStep · July 2012

Hey everyone!
I was searching around for healthy snack ideas on youtube and I found a way to make sweet potato chips in the microwave! I tried it out and it was very fast, easy, & yummy!

Here is the video I watched:

(I did NOT peel my sweet potato)

Here is a picture of my outcome!

I had to vary my microwaving time to 4mins 30 secs because I made thicker chips. (Some chips did burn so you have to check them periodically)
I made it with a white sweet potato and will try with a red one soon. Made a decent amount and I bought 2 sweet potatos for $1.17. I sprinkled mine with paprika! All you need is a microwave & sweet potato and you have some good tasting healthy chips!
Not sure if you guys have heard of this before, but I LOVE IT!

(Sorry the picture is cut off, not really sure how to fix it)

These are great!! I used to make chips like the ones you posted with regular chips however I am in love with sweet potatoes recently.

Same here! I also love sweet potato fries and I found a way on youtube to make them homemade in the oven! Can't wait to try that too

Thanks much...I was searching for a chip alternative and I do bake sweet potatoes now. This is a great idea. I do have recipes for various dips using non-fat plain yogurt as well.

I'm a recovering chip addict in Chipaholics Anonymous...we are all a bunch of "dips".
