Comments
My son made these and added a tsp of garlic powder, and a pinch of ground pepper:)
These chips were a hit!! The kids had a great time making them and they loved eating them too. The amount of salt in the recipe might be a little too much--there was some complaint that the chips were too salty.
The salt could always be reduced or omitted. It could also be that it was sprinkled a little unevenly.

These are so trendy right now! I can't wait to try making them myself!
Very tasty! Light flavor, I really enjoyed these. They are a good substitute for potato chips. I might try these with some salsa next time.
