Olive oil:
- 1-2 tablespoons
Seasonings (optional):
- Salt
- Pepper

Instructions
Prepare the Vegetables:
- Wash and dry your chosen vegetables. Slice them into thin, even pieces (about 1/8 inch thick). A mandoline slicer can help achieve uniform thickness.
Season the Veggies:
- In a large bowl, toss the vegetable slices with olive oil and your chosen seasonings. Make sure each piece is well-coated for optimal crispiness.
Preheat the Air Fryer:
- Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and preheat for about 3-5 minutes.
Air Fry the Chips:
- Place the seasoned veggie slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking.
- Cooking Time: Air fry for 8-12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even crispiness. Check regularly to prevent burning.
Cool and Serve:
- Once crispy, remove the chips and let them cool for a few minutes. Enjoy them on their own or as a topping for salads, grain bowls, or with your favorite dips!
Notes
- Slice Evenly: Ensure all slices are uniform to cook evenly.
- Adjust Cooking Time: Depending on the thickness of your slices and your specific air fryer model, you may need to adjust cooking times slightly.
- Storage: Allow chips to cool completely before storing in an airtight container. They will stay fresh for up to a week at room temperature.
