Squash Chips

Squash chips are a healthy alternative to regular chips and they pack a ton of flavor. You won’t have to feel guilty about eating all of them!

It’s March!! Yayay! That means I’m going to Chicago in 21 days & Mexico in 38 days. I’m also going to the Justin Timberlake/Jay-Z concert in 160 days. I like countdowns.

This might be the easiest recipe I’ve ever made. It’s possible I’ve said that before, but I really mean it this time. Plus, it tastes good and they’re good for you. Not even in the questionable “good for you” way that I like to justify things. These are actually good for you. They make a perfect snack food so adjust the recipe accordingly to make however much you want. I only had one squash on hand so that’s what I made.

Squash chips are a healthy but delicious alternative to regular chips that pack a ton of flavor!

Author: Melissa | Persnickety Plates

Serves: 1 cup

Ingredients

• One yellow squash
• salt
• pepper
• seasoned salt
• olive oil (or olive oil/non-stick spray)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 255 degrees (low & slow) and line a baking sheet with tin foil. Set aside.
2. Slice your squash into very thin disks. Super thin, like chips.
3. Put the squash disks into a bowl, coat with olive oil (or spray), sprinkle with seasonings and toss to coat.
4. Lay the squash in a single layer on your prepared baking sheet and bake for 2 hours. Mine could have probably come out a few minutes sooner but I was vacuuming and got distracted. Keep an eye on yours.
5. That’s it. I wasn’t lying.

Notes

One squash should = approximately one cup of chips, depending on the size of your squash.
