Tips & Substitutions
For extra flavor, consider adding garlic powder or nutritional yeast to the seasoning mix. If you want a spicier kick, try using smoked paprika or chili powder instead of cayenne pepper. When slicing the potatoes, try to keep them uniform in thickness for even cooking. If you're short on olive oil, avocado oil can be a great substitute.

They also make a great side to sandwiches or wraps. For a complete meal, enjoy them with Fragrant Noodles for a delightful contrast in textures.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. To reheat, preheat your oven to 350°F and bake the chips for about 5-7 minutes until they regain their crispiness. Avoid the microwave, as it can make them soggy.
