Sweet potatoes are a rich source of carotenoids that help reduce inflammation. Sweet potatoes are also highly rich in antioxidants that may build our immunity and help us deal with cold and throat problems.

Potatoes also carry significant anti-inflammatory properties, besides being a rich source of energy coming through carbohydrates. Potatoes are also said to be good for digestion.

To prepare these chips, cut slices of sweet potatoes and potatoes. Coat them with a mix of paprika powder, pepper, salt, and just 1 teaspoon of oil. Grease baking tray with some oil and place all the potato slices separately on the tray. Put them in a preheated oven and bake them for one hour. You’ll get crispy and crunchy potato chips just like store-bought ones, these one being only healthier and tastier!
