Potato Crisps

Ingredients:
  • 1 1/4 lbs. baking potatoes, peeled and very thinly sliced
  • 3/4 tsp salt
Makes 4 Servings
  1. In a medium bowl, combine the potatoes, 1/4 tsp of the salt, and cold water to cover. Soak 30 minutes; drain and blot dry.
  2. Preheat the oven to 350 F; spray 2 nonstick baking sheets with nonstick spray. Place the potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheets. Bake, turning the potatoes pver frequently so that they color and crisp evenly, 30-45 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 tsp of salt.
WW POINTS VALUE: 2 pts (1/4 of crisps)

Note: This recipe appears in the WW New Complete Cookbook. I was cleaning out my pantry and the potato had been in there for a while and I dedcided to make homemade potato chips to go with dinner. These homemade treats were very easy to prepare and very tasty as a result. I highly recommend using starchy baking potatoes such as Idaho for texture and flavor. You can also add any kind of herb or spice to these potato crips to add a kick of flavor. You know the Pringles slogan 'Once you pop, you can't stop?' Once you've had these potato crisps, you'll never eat Pringles,Lays, Utz or any other brand name of potato chip again.
