Well I’m on day 16 of posting everyday for February and I’m keeping it really simple! So here’s an easy yet so satisfying recipe I hope you’ll try.

I made this easy side to go with my Jamaican Jerk Chicken Nuggets and it almost stole the show! It’s not my first time making homemade potato chips but it was a first using a sweet potato and it’s just as easy but twice as tasty.

I seasoned the freshly fried sweet potato chips with brown sugar, salt, cinnamon and cayenne pepper! It was packed with all kinds of flavors, sweet savory and spicy!
