Sometimes it can be difficult to get in all your servings of vegetables for the day. If you have a busy lifestyle that makes vegetables inconvenient, here is the solution: veggie chips.
Instead of snacking on potato chips or pretzels, make your own veggie chips. To make them, all you need to do is thinly slice a root vegetable, drizzle over olive oil, salt, and bake! The best way to get a thin and crispy veggie chip is by using a mandoline, and if you do not have one, use a very sharp knife to make the thinnest slices possible.
Here are some chip inspirations to get you started.
Rutabega
Also known as Swede in some places in the world, this vegetable is a cross between a cabbage and a turnip and is perfect for making chips. It is very high in vitamin C and has a sharp yet slightly sweet flavor.
Parnsip
Parsnips are a white root vegetable that is naturally sweet when roasted just like a carrot and are high in fiber. Snack on these and you will stay fuller longer guaranteed.
Yucca
Yucca is a root vegetable native to Latin America. Is pretty starchy so it holds up really well as a chip.
