Ingredients

• 1 large Zucchini
• 1 large Sweet Potato
• 2 large Carrot
• 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Dried Oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic Powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

Wash all vegetables thoroughly under cool running water. Pat them dry with a clean towel.

Step 3

Using a mandoline or a sharp knife, slice the zucchini, sweet potato, and carrots into thin rounds, approximately 1/8-inch thick for even cooking.

Step 4

Place the sliced vegetables into a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss gently to coat every piece.

Step 5

In a small bowl, combine the salt, dried oregano, garlic powder, and paprika. Sprinkle this spice blend over the oiled vegetable slices and toss again until evenly distributed.

Step 6

Spread the vegetable slices out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Ensure that the slices do not overlap for uniform crispiness.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then rotate the trays and flip the vegetable slices over to ensure even cooking.

Step 8

Continue baking for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the chips are golden brown and crisp. Watch them closely to prevent burning, especially in the final minutes.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let the chips cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes. They will become crisper as they cool.

Step 10

Serve immediately for optimum crunch, or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
