~ Raw Sweet Potato Chips ~

These sweet potato chips were the first attempt. They need some work, but they were still surprisingly good. I added a little Herbmare and some olive oil and set them in the dehydrator for twelve hours.


I tried some with olive oil and some without. The ones with olive oil took longer to dehydrate and appeared darker in color.

I actually loved them sliced raw with a little flavour. My son said they tasted interesting which meant they were good. Next time I will try beet chips and see how they turn out.

They don't seem to have the same crunch a potato chip has, but I need to remind myself these are not supposed to be junk food. Raw food is different than cooked. I will continue to work on them and hope to come up with something rawesome.

They were so similar to look at because they curled just like a regular potato chip. I think they are beautiful.

I brought a container of these chips to the gym to munch and I noticed people were looking with curiosity.


Isn't raw food fun and exciting?? !! (:
