Ingredients

    3 leaves Romaine Lettuce
    1/2 tbsp Olive Oil
    1/2 tbsp Tomato Juice (I used Mott's Extra Spicy Clamato)
    1/4 tsp Bacon Salt (the one I use is meat free, but contains milk solids, so it's vegetarian, but not vegan)

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Rinse romaine leaves, blot dry with paper towel (or use a salad spinner). Ensure leaves are well dried before continuing.

Tear into bite-sized pieces. In a bowl mix olive oil and tomato juice. Add lettuce and toss well.

Sprinkle bacon salt (or seasoning of your choice), and continue tossing until well-coated.

Arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 10-20 minutes, depending on oven. Flip lettuce chips halfway through.

Once they are crispy and golden (and mostly dried out), I turn off the heat, transfer the chips to a paper towel lined plate, and return to the still warm oven for another 5-10 minutes to finish drying out. This step is optional and dependent on how dry your chips get from the baking stage.

Enjoy!
