So, one morning,( a couple a months ago) I was watching the Today show. I was enjoying a healthy breakfast, and suddenly they presented the “Lays Your Flavor” contest. To my HORROR, the Lays company was going to be making their already unhealthy chips worse. The final three flavors were :
Chicken and waffles
Cheesy Bread
and…
Sriracha….
Sriracha hmmmm… I LOVE SRIRACHA!!! That flavor actually didn’t horrify me!
I quickly forgot about this little contest, until yesterday.
A friend of mine (who reads this blog, and is a fan of all things chips hehehe) was talking about the Lays SRIRACHA chip. I instantly decided that I was intrigued by the idea, and wanted to make a healthy version of the snack.
Veggie Sriracha Chips
- Veggie of choice (I used Jerusalem Artichoke, but I think Carrots, Parsnips, butternut squash or sweet potato would work best)
- 1 tbs sriracha (more or less depending on how spicy you like!)
- 1/2 tsp olive oil
- pinch of salt and garlic powder
Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees (depending on your oven). Slice veggies thin. In a bowl, mix salt, garlic powder, and olive oil through out veggies.
Bake for about 25 minutes or until brown (keep an eye on them). Remove from oven, add some more sriracha if needed. ENJOY!!!
Ok, time for bed… rehearsal in the am!!!!
