Making potato chips today :)

So, since starting the diet, I've actually gotten reallyl into cooking.

I figured, well, I've been wanting to learn to cook and bake for forever, now I have to make virtually all my own food... now's a good time.

On list one, so the options are limited, but I'm experimenting with different types of baking, broiling etc. just the basics. For most people I guess this is totally unexciting, but I came from the classic American family where the microwave was used far more than the oven :/

So, today I am very excited to be attempting potato chips which actually look super easy. Getting pumped! Gonna put that garlic powder and dried basil all over my chips!

 

Love

Hannah

If we don't excel at health, the only other option is disease.

Sounds Yummy! Let us know how they turn out.  I also spent the day in the kitchen making a Quiche.  I haven't tried it yet but smells delicious.

Ohhhh yummy quiche! I made the mashed potato crusted quiche the other day, it was deliciouis, but I would love for the eggs to be fluffier, any advice? I feel like normally one would add milk, but I'm doing list 1 so that's not possible.. .maybe melted butter? Or just whip the eggs a bit more??
 
The chips were a total burnt failure HA! But I think it's because I added too much oil to the bottom of the pan and let them cook for too long (my oven light was broken, that didn't help...) so I bought parchment paper and am going to try again with a new plan of attack. My dad ( who is retired, so shares all of my mid-day meals) keeps grunting about how I will not succeed at baking potato chips, so I am dead set on success just to shut him up MWHAHAHA!
HE WILL LOVE MY POTATO CHIPS! And when I succeed I will tell you just how I did it :)
 
yum
