If weight loss or maintenance is a goal for you, then the most effective and nutritious place for you to do your grocery shopping is in the produce department. Not only great for salads and fruity snacks, the produce department can fill you full of your more indulgent flavors as well. Lately, I’ve been “indulging” in a salty snack which keeps my tummy satisfied but lean, my energy levels high and my cravings in check. Sweet Potato Chips are easy to make, require only two ingredients and can make it to your table in less than 10 minutes. Can’t beat them!

Ingredients:1 large sweet potato

1 tsp sea salt

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees

2. Coat cookie sheet with nonstick cooking spray

3. Slice potato in to 1/4 inch slices.

4. Place potato slices on cookie sheet.

5. Sprinkle with sea salt.

6. Bake at 425 degrees for 6-10 minutes.

Serves 2

Keep a close eye on chips to avoid burning as they’ll cook quickly! Serve with ketchup for an authentic “french fry” flavor!
