Oven Baked Potato Wheels

This dish is simple, yet it simply hits the spot when you are looking for a tasty snack or appetizer. And by cutting the potatoes into 1/3 inch rounds they become crispy on the outside, yet are perfectly baked on the inside.


How healthy is that? Nutritional Yeast Flakes are a source of protein and vitamins, especially the B-Complex vitamins.

Recipe Ingredients:
2 medium sized Yukon Gold or other potatoes
3-4 T Olive Oil
Sea Salt
Nutrtional Yeast Flakes

Directions:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
Wash potatoes and cut into 1/3 inch rounds.
Place in bowl and add olive oil.
Lay on cookie sheet. Do not overlap.
Sprinkle with Sea Salt and Nutritional Yeast Flakes.
Place cookie sheet in oven.
Bake for approximately 40 minutes or until desired crunchiness is obtained.
Flip potatoes over after 20 minutes so they cook evenly on both sides.

Enjoy with dipping sauce of your choice. Or Vegan Sour Cream, recipe below.
