Here at Potluck Paradise headquarters we've declared February to be National Potluck Month. What better way to start the event with a countdown of recipes and ideas for the Super Day.
We're starting off with a healthy take on chips and dips. Non-fat cream cheese forms the base and we're slicing carrots into a chip. Holds more dip that a carrot stick and healthier than a salty corn or potato chips.
We'll have more recipes this coming week so you can prepare for your game-day Potluck.
To make Carrot Chips.
Pick a fat carrot. Peel with a vegetable peeler and then peel a thick slice off one side to provide a flat edge to make the chips. Carefully slice a long diagonal along the length of the carrot. Then cut slices about 1/8 of an inch thick into chips.
