Fat Free Potato Chips

This is my new favorite snack.  I crave these constantly.

And guess what??

Just 75 calories.

Yeah,  you heard me.  75 calories.  0 grams of fat.  100% delicious.



The naturalness of these chips is what makes them so good.  They are done in the microwave so anyone can make these.  So simple.  So good.  Another tasty variation is to use sweet potato instead of regular potato.

Ingredients:
  • Potato
  • Pan spray
  • Salt

Directions:

 Step 1:  Slice potato as thin as possible.

 Step 2:  Spay a large plate with pan spray and lay potato slices onto plate.  Sprinkle with salt.


Step 3:  Since all microwaves are different I can't just give you a time to cook them.  You need to play around a little until you find out what works for your microwave.  I cook mine starting at 6 minutes.  I then add minutes as I need to (usually 2 minutes at a time) according to how the potatoes look.  You know when they are ready when they start to crisp up and get a golden brown look to them like in the first picture.  Potatoes will get crunchier as they cool so color is a major factor in determining doneness.

Serve with a dip of your choice or eat alone.  Serving size is one potato.  Calorie information taken from My Fitness, calculations using My Recipe.
