Microwave disc chip maker
 
This past weekend I went to a Pampered Chef party and they have this disc thing that goes in the mircowave and makes chips. They did potato and everyone was raving about them so I ordered to make the zuchinni chips. Of course, today I go into Bed, Bath and Beyond and they have it along with a slicer which is much cheaper. But decided to wait for the Pampered Chef one - can't wait to try vegetables on it! Has anyone used this yet?

Chip maker??? That sounds great! I'm going to head to Bed Bath & Beyond maybe tomorrow. I have some zuchinni in the fridge ready to go....I'll let you know they turn out. Thanks for the info :)

Looking forward to the reviews! Let us know how it works out - I'd like to try the Kale Chips using this!

I'm not on IP, but... I make chips in the micorwave all the time, but I don't use a chip maker... I use this: http://www.food.com/recipe/uncle-bil...to-chips-47195

They are awesome. I use my mandolin, a little pam, and then sprinkle them with kosher salt and garlic powder.. sometimes a little cumin or chili powder. TASTY. :D

What is the one at Bed Bath and Beyond called? I don't have a store near me and thought I may try to find it on their website.

I think I have a coupon from BB&B. I'll check that out.

Googled chip maker on the site and it is Mastrad TopChips Chips maker $19.99. Can't wait for my Pampered Chef one to come in - dying to make zuchinni chips, maybe turnip chips, and thanks for the suggestion on the Kale Chips! At the party they said you could even make banana chips on it, so we will see!

Great idea with the chip maker!!!!! I am excited to pick one up :)

DebbeeL 03-15-2012 11:16 PM

PC chip maker
 
I have the Pampered Chef chip maker and the potato and banana chips are amazing. I'm going to try the zucchini - sounds interesting!

I picked one up today and it has several draw backs. First, the mandolin is VERY small. I was looking to make turnip chips and it would have been tough. Also, they specifically state in the pamphlet what are acceptable things to cook. Turnips and zucchini were not included. Not sure if that matters or they are just covering themselves if the results are sub par.

GramEGail 03-16-2012 09:47 PM

Artflunky, are you going to try them or just bring it back?

Gramadel, please let us know how they turn out! I am anxious to hear since it will be almost 2 weeks before the Pampered Chef one comes in....I did not order the slicer from Pampered Chef. Did you have the simple slicer? If so, let me know if I should order it.

artflunky 03-18-2012 10:00 PM

I was going to bring it back but just saw a post on another site that someone used it for zucchini and turnip and it made it really crisp which I haven't been able to achieve in the oven. I used a coupon so it only cost about $16.oo. I think I'll check it out. I'll let you know how it works!

I couldn't find it at BB&B here in canada and they didn't know what I was talking about. I'll have to ask around if anyone is having a PC party.
