SWEET POTATO CHIPS AND GUACAMOLE (7) Makes 1 to 2 servings 2 large sweet potatoes ¼ teaspoon sea salt ¼ teaspoon garlic powder ¼ teaspoon cumin ¼ teaspoon paprika ¼ teaspoon chili powder ¼ teaspoon cayenne (optional) 2 teaspoons coconut oil (optional) Preheat the oven to 250° F. Using a mandoline or knife, slice the sweet potatoes into very thin rounds, approximately 1/16 - inch thick if possible and no thicker than 1/8 inch. Make sure they are even and thin, though not transparent. Bring a pot of water to boil. Place the sweet potato slices into the boiling water and return to a simmer over medium heat. After 5 minutes, remove the sweet potatoes and discard the water. Combine the sea salt, garlic powder, cumin, paprika, chili powder, and cayenne in a small bowl. Lightly grease two baking trays with coconut oil. Arrange the sweet potato slices on the trays so that they are not overlapping. Brush the tops of the sweet potatoes lightly with more coconut oil. Sprinkle the spice mix generously over the top of the slices. Bake the sweet potatoes for 25 minutes. Remove the trays from the oven and set the slices that are already crispy to one side. Return the trays to the oven for 5 more minutes and then check to remove the crispy chips again. If needed, bake the remaining slices 3 to 5 minutes more. Note that the chips might not appear crispy when first removed from the oven, though they should crisp up as they cool. Serve sweet potato chips alongside guacamole, or enjoy them plain! For best results, serve shortly after making!
