  Try cutting a flat surface on the potato then using a potato peeler to make the slices nice and thin. - 4/20/10

  This recipe is the greatest thing that ever happened to me! Used a glass dish, sprayed with no calorie olive oil, pepper, lowry's salt -about 4mins each side. Then top with malt vinegar. I feel like praying.... - 9/16/11

  This was excellent! Had to modify the cooking time a lot - 2 min, then flip, then 2 min. I did salt & vinegar and it was wonderful. Am looking forward to trying lots of spices, including the dry buffalo wing packet for my daughter! A potato - no oil - who would have figured!? - 2/8/10

  Worked great! I was surprised! I have a turntable in my microwave, so I only had to do 5 minutes in the microwave total. - 6/7/11

  I make these today and they were so good. I put the cut potatoes between two paper towel to dry them off to reduce cooking time. I will be making this again.
  Thank you for the recipe - 8/10/12

  We love these. Haven't bought potato chips since doing this. My husband says there is no comparison with these and store bought. They are so fresh tasting....because they are! - 10/9/11

  This was not a good recipe.
  My potatoes were not cooked all the way through. The tops were golden and perfect but they were also glued and stuck to uncooked potatoes under them and everything was stuck to the dish.
  It sounds like a good idea, maybe I didn't execute it correctly! - 4/29/12

  I can't belive this worked. Me and my mom stood in front of the microwave waiting to see what would happen... Amazing! I tried a few with apple cider vinigar and sea salt. Im a fan! Who Knew - 11/23/10

  Maybe I didn't cut the potatoes thin enough, maybe there was something wrong with the potatoes, or maybe it was the microwave, but these didn't turn out well. They were chewy even though they were cooking for plenty enough time(6 min) and not crunchy. They stuck horribly to my plate. I did turn them - 2/10/10

  My husband and I love the potato chips. I spray the pan with canola oil spray. The potato chips turn great. I could control the salt on them. I am going to try chili seasoning on the next time. - 4/13/11

  I read through the comments before making these, used a slicer, adjusted the cook times for my microwave, and used a bit of sea salt (like saltier) and a bit of tex mex too... they were really good. Must admit I was sceptical, but they were very good! - 6/12/10

  Easy way to get the crunch and taste of chips without the bad calories. I sprayed with a bit of Pam to avoid sticking, and it worked. Had to watch them closely so they did not get too crispy. - 3/14/10

  Wow, I found this recipe yesterday and bought potatoes today. I just made them and I forgot to use tip someone mentioned about turning them over so they don't stick to the plate. I like BBQ normal chips and bought BillyBee Honey BBQ Seasoning to sprinkle and was very pleased with the results. - 10/28/09

  Great way to do potato chips. And if you have a turntable in your microwave, watch the timing for the browning. They may brown more quickly. - 9/11/18

  I threw a potato in my food processor. It has a chip esque blade. No hard work and the slices came out pretty thin. Threw them in the microwave on parchment paper with some garlic salt, and they came out amazing! Now I can have my chips without feeling guilty, and it's a money saver. Thank you! - 7/30/13

  This recipe was posted a while back but I happened upon it searching for something microwaveable and quick for a snack. Who knew a small potato makes so many chips. I did slice them in processor...2 seconds and done and onto plate to microwave. This snack is DELICOUS! Thank you for sharing. - 6/11/13

  This would work in a pinch...since I didn't have access to parchment paper, I used a Pyrex pie plate. I used a mandolin for the slicing of the potatoes, and I think I just need to find my happy medium - the potatoes stuck to the plate. :/ - 6/8/10

  Honestly these weren't good at all without using some sort of mandolin slicer. It was really hard to get them thin enough to where they tasted good. Also, the seasoning didn't come out too strong on the "chips" so they just tasted plain. I was disappointed because I was so looking forward to them! - 5/31/10

  I've shared this recipe with several people since trying it and they ALL loved it and asked for the recipe. When you take the plate out to rotate it, flip the chips over before continuing to cook to prevent them sticking to the plate. Delicious! - 10/11/09

  I am a salty, crunchy freak. These are SO GOOD!! Had I'd known I could do this a long time ago I would have saved myself many a "beating up"s over eating regular chips and feeling guilty. These are 2 WW points and will satisfy my cravings. THANKS! They definately need to be paper thin. - 8/6/09
