Sweet Potato Chips

For those looking to satisfy a salty yet savory craving, this is a recipe for you! Please give my sweet potato chips a try as a great side dish, appetizer, or afternoon snack! Be sure to pair with high-quality protein like string cheese, hard-boiled eggs, or deli turkey slices.

Ingredients

  • 2 medium or large sweet potatoes
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1-2 minced garlic cloves
  • 1-2 tsp fresh or dried thyme
  • 1-2 tsp oregano
  • Salt and cracked black pepper or coarsely ground black pepper

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F and line a large baking sheet with tin foil or parchment paper.
  2. Slice the sweet potatoes very thin into rounds or small wedges (1/8-inch slices).
  3. In a medium bowl, mix the sweet potato slices with olive oil until fully saturated. Add the seasoning and mix well! You can also use a Tupperware container with a cap to mix the ingredients sufficiently. Be sure to check the Tupperware container’s cap is tightly sealed and shake!
  4. Uncap and arrange the slices on the baking sheet without overlapping the potatoes.
  5. Bake for 20-30 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through. Bake until golden brown or crisp to desired texture.
  6. Let the slices cool to room temperature and enjoy! Serves 3-4 people.

Is Your Athlete Fueling Enough to Perform & Stay Healthy?

Most high school and college athletes don’t struggle because they aren’t training hard enough.

They struggle because they are:

👉Under-fueling without realizing it
👉 Eating “healthy” but not enough for sport
👉Training hard while under-recovering

Over time, this leads to:
– Low energy
– Poor recovery
– Increased injury risk

I created a free Athlete Fueling Checklist to help parents and athletes identify common fueling mistakes and understand what to fix next.
