I’ve made sweet potato chips before and I shared the recipe on my blog. This time I wanted to make them cheesy, but without the extra calories from cheese. The only option was to use nutritional yeast, so I gave it a try. It was delicious. I used a little bit of extra salt when I seasoned them, but pretty much was the same as last time.

Ingredients for 4 servings of Sweet potatoes chips with nutritional yeast:

– 1 kg of sweet potatoes
– 4 spoons of oil
– salt
– nutritional yeast

Wash and cut the potatoes. Put them in a freezer bag and add the oil and the salt. Shake the bag so the potatoes will be coated with the oil. Put them in the preheated oven at 200C or 180C fan. Bake them for around 30-35 minutes, until they are soft.

Meanwhile I made the rest of the dish, another recipe I’ve share before: Spicy mushrooms with peanut butter. I love this recipe, it’s one that I make again and again.

After the potatoes are baked, taken them out of the oven, plate them and sprinkle nutritional yeast on top.

The dish was fab, my husband was very pleased with it too. As I used yeast to flavour instead of cheese, the meal was vegan.
Have you tried sweet potatoes with nutritional yeast? Do you like this combination?
