Appetizer:

Baked Sweet potato chip topped with "NUTRI-Cheezy" Choriso and Spinach chiffinade.

Baked Sweet Potato Chips topped with Caramelized Shallots and a Braised mushroom "Scallop" seared in navel orange juice.

We really enjoyed the Baked Sweet potatoes topped with the "Scallop", mashed sweet potatoes and gravy, the rich hearty stew and the Souffles.

Jennifer is going to try to redo the cheesecake as it had potential.

Baked Sweet Potato Chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Thinly slice a sweet potato (or use a madolin) I did it by hand using a paring knife.

SPray both sides of the chips with Organic olive oil.

Bake until crispy. VOILA>>>> easy as, well as baked sweet potato chip.

Love,
