Sweet Potato Chips

The Carnivore LOVES sweet potatoes. So, after my successful experiment with kale chips I decided to make some sweet potato chips for him.

I used 3 medium sweet potatoes and then treated them basically the same as the kale.

I took my time and sliced the potatoes very thin with a sharp knife. I didn't peel the potatoes first but probably should have since I wasn't able to buy organic.

Then I tossed them in a tablespoon or so of olive oil and sprinkled them with sea salt.

I set the oven to 250 and let them bake for two hours. I turned them once with tongs at the halfway mark.

Yes, two hours. And at the end of that time about only half the chips were as crispy as they should have been.

I became impatient and turned the oven up to 300. Big mistake. The remaining chips burned within five minutes.

The chips that turned out good, turned out really good. Good enough for me to try this again. Except this time I'll be much more patient!

Also, these chips should be eaten soon after baking. I tried to store some overnight and while they were still edible most of the crispness was gone.
