Sweet Potato Chips







I love how I feel when eat a grain-free diet. I don't feel bloated, I have stable energy and clearer skin. But sometimes I need something crunchy- and of course a vehicle for guacamole delivery.  Since tortilla chips and crackers are off the table it calls for some creativity in the kitchen. 

These sweet potato chips are so easy to make and go great with guacamole. Sweet potatoes have more nutrients in them than store bought chips and crackers. Eating grain-free isn't just about avoiding grains. It's about the nutrient dense foods you are eating instead of grains. Removing foods that don't offer many nutrients and replacing them with foods that nourish your body is what truly improves your health.

Directions:
-Heat oven to 400
-Cut sweet potato into thin slices.
-Melt coconut oil (you can put an oven safe is in the oven until the oil melts or place oil in small pan on the stove and heat until melted.

-Place on baking sheet and salt.
-Place in oven for for 15 minutes. Flip the chips at the halfway point and add more salt.

1-2 sweet potatoes -depending on how many chips you need.
