Summer is always a fun time for me because I get to spend my days with my grandson Landon while he is on school vacation. Landon loves helping out with the gardening and yard work, and he is a great kitchen assistant, as well. Landon and his grandad recently made a visit to Black Gold Farms in Arbyrd, Missouri, to watch the potatoes being harvested, and they brought home a bag of special potatoes for me to try. The White Chipper potatoes that were being harvested the day they visited are a potato variety that is grown especially for making potato chips.
Landon and I didn’t really have a recipe to follow, but we made a batch of baked potato chips from the White Chipper potatoes.

Landon’s Baked Potato Chips
3 White Chipper potatoes
Olive oil spray
Salt
Preheat oven to 475 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil, then spray foil with olive oil. Slice potatoes thinly, and spread in a single layer on the prepared pan. Spray the potatoes lightly with olive oil. Bake for 15 minutes, then flip the potatoes over and bake for 10 – 15 minutes longer. Salt to taste.
Landon enjoyed his farm visit, and he taught me something new about potato varieties today.
What a fun trip for Landon and he's such a cutie, Anita! The chips look delicious and so much healthier and what a great learning experience for him.
