13 Chip Recipes

For whatever reason, I love making chips. Most of these recipes are healthy (veggies and fruit), a few of them no so much (hello, pepperoni chips), but all of them are delicious!

1. Zucchini Chips
Ever since I discovered zucchini chips (and it's been a couple of years), I eat them almost every day. That's how much I love them.



2. Yellow Squash Chips
These taste exactly like zucchini chips, so if they grocery store is out of zucchini, just pick up a couple of yellow squash.



3. Cucumber Chips
I don't like cucumbers, but I do like cucumber chips.



4. Kale Chips
I've recently rediscovered the kale chips. They remind me a lot of potato chips, just healthier.



5. Potato Chips
These are a thousand times better than greasy store-bought chips.



6. Carrot Chips
Sweet and healthy don't usually go together, but they are a match made in heaven with these carrot chips.



7. Parsnip Chips
These are kind of like a nutty potato chips.



8. Apple Chips
I made these every autumn. Eric just loves them.



9. Banana Chips
Another one of Eric's favorites.



10. Pepperoni Chips
On to the not so healthy chips. I'm going to be honest, these things are way too salty for my taste buds. However, my husbands can't stop eating them. You can also substitute salami for the pepperoni. if you so desire.




11. Pita Chips
I have gotten so many people hooked on these through the years. They are perfect with hummus.



12. Tortilla Chips
I think the thing I like most about these tortilla chips is that I can control the salt on them. Whenever we buy tortilla chips, they are always too salty for me.

13. Cinnamon-Sugar Chips
Oh my god, these things are addicting! I'm not allowed to making them too often because they are so good that I can devour them in one sitting.



Enjoy!

Baked Apple Chips


Every autumn Eric and I go to the cider mill in St. Johns, host a fall dinner party, and go apple picking. Sadly, this year there will be no apple picking. The dry, scorching hot summer hurt a lot of farmers, including the apple orchards. Even if we can't pick our own apples this year, we can still buy them at the grocery store. So I am starting my apple cooking/baking with apple chips, a tasty, healthy autumn snack.


Ingredients:
1 apple
1 tablespoon cinnamon
pinch of nutmeg
1/2 tablespoon sugar
pinch of salt

Directions:
Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. 

Mix cinnamon, nutmeg, sugar, and salt together in a small bowl. Set aside.

Cut both ends of the apple. Using a mandoline, slice the apples as thin as possible. The thinner the slices, the crisper your chips will be. Remove any seeds from the slices.

Place the apple slices on the baking sheets in a single later. Rub the spice mixture onto one side of the apple slices.

I almost forgot to take a picture of the unbaked apple chips.

Bake for 30 minutes, flip the chips over, and bake for another 30 to 60 minutes or until the chips are lightly browned and crisp. Allow to cool.

I love how the edges become wavy.
Enjoy!
