I wanted to add that Popchips are not too bad. They're not the best but they're good and one of the healthier options. They are not fried. You get quite a few chips for a serving, like 27 chips for around 120 calories, I can't remember exactly. Where I live (in Iowa) I can only find them at Target.
Yes those are good to. They are a bit pricey compared to Lays, but they are less calories

Your idea sounds great. I may just invest in a dehydrator! Another alternative to chips is one I just found last week at Costco (I'm in Canada so they may or may not be available elsewhere). They are called Spapea Crisps. They are made from green peas and rice and are baked (the ingredient list: green peas, corn oil, rice, salt, calcium carbonate, ascorbic acid). They are only 130 calories for 28 g (equal to 1 oz) and are super crispy and light and taste delicious. You can find them at the Costco here in the salad topping/dressing aisle but they should really be in the snack/chip aisle.
I'm in Canada to
Thanks for sharing!

My hubby is a chip addict, and I NEVER had them in the house before I moved in with him 5 years ago. I also love them but can't stop once I start, but he buys about 3 bags a week! I found a microwave chip maker at Pampered Chef that is terrific! We slice the potatoes with their Ultimate Mandoline, place the slices on paper towelsand sprinkle with salt. Then press, press, press the water out of them with more paper towels and layer the slices on the 2-level chip cooker and zap in microwave. Yes it is labor-intensive but worth it! It takes quite a few times to get the cooking time just right, and they will be really crunchy the longer you cook them. PC also makes a BBQ rub that I sprinkle on mine for BBQ chips!
Nothing tastes as good as being thin feels!

Canned coconut milk vs cartoned coconut milk
Since my initial reply I did try cartoned one (curiosity). While I think different brands would taste slightly differently, it does not really taste like coconut milk. If you look at the calorie count ...
