Make them by the bagful and share with your dog lover friends.
What you need:
- White sweet potatoes - you can use white potatoes, orange sweet potatoes, or yams in the same recipe. This post is written at Thanksgiving time and white sweet potatoes are in abundance in the grocery stores.
Directions:
- Cut the potatoes into round slices
- Coat in bacon grease - this helps to preserve them
- Dehydrate for 4 hours
If you do not have a dehydrator, all you have to do is set your oven to 200 degrees F - and simply bake at this low heat setting for 4 hours or more, depending on how dry you want them. A dehydrator will take out all of the moisture and make them crispy. If you leave a little moisture in, they will be crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside.

ReplyDeleteWe make these in all sorts of veggies and we use powdered meat and cheese instead of chip "flavours". The dogs gobble them up!
