    List of Ingredients




    Snack - Vegetable Chips

    2 pounds peeled + thinly sliced vegetable,
    ...(slice about 1/16th inch wide),
    ...(examples: large radishes, sweet potatoes, russet baking
    ...potatoes, large carrots, butternut squash, rutabaga, turnips,
    ...parsnips, beets - use one or a mixture)
    salt to taste
    cooking spray

    Sprinkle the vegetable slices lightly, but evenly with salt.
    Let set for 20 - 30 minutes. This allows the vegetables to
    release moisture. Rinse well in cold water, and then let dry
    completely on paper towels.
    Or
    dry in your microwave:
    Coat a microwave safe plate with the cooking spray. Then
    place the vegetables on the plate, in a single layer, and coat
    the vegetables with a little more cooking spray. Place in the
    microwave. Use high power and cook for 5 - 7 minutes, or
    until the vegetables are dry. Check vegetables; remove any
    that may have already dried. Move the rest of the vegetables
    around on the plate and continue to cook. The vegetables
    will get crispier as they cool off.
    Or
    dry in your oven:
    Coat a jelly roll size pan with cooking spray. Place the
    vegetables on pan in a single layer. Coat the vegetables
    with a little more cooking spray. Bake @ 275 for 40 - 50
    minutes. Be sure to check the vegetables as they cook
    and remove any that are dried. Let cool. Store in an
    airtight container at room temperature.
    Makes 8 servings.

    Note:
    -Different vegetables are done at different times. Be
    sure to check frequently for doneness.
    - If using the microwave method, it is best to cook only
    1 type of vegetable at a time.
