Discover the Delicious World of Meat on the Microwave Chip Maker

[naekelsey]

Has anyone tried doing meat on the Microwave Chip Maker?

 

[doughmama]

no and I wouldn't. totally not what it is made for. think with the grease you may destroy the chip maker and possibly your microwave...

 

[chef131doreen]

It's only for potatoes, apples and yuca thats it

 

[naekelsey]

Ok.. Thank you.. I had a customer ask me a few nights ago and I wanted to check first....

Not "allowed" but I make pepperoni chips on it, and it's been just fine. lay out thin sliced pepperoni, sprinkle with green-can Parmesan. Only takes a couple of minutes to get crisp (in my microwave at least).A lifesaver for my low-carb diet! Chips!

Has anyone tried plantain chips or other vegetables or fruit? It would be great to have some other options for people on low carb diets.

I tell everyone that it specifically says only to use the listed fruits/veggies. I would not encourage anyone to try anything else. That said, I'm now intrigued by the pepperoni chips.

I agree with Rae. With any product, I would not suggest any use outside of the Use & Care guidelines.

I have always wanted to try making chips with tortillas on it, but have been afraid to try it.

This product is all over the place. It is on QVC, Solutions, Cooking.com, etc etc.

It appears to be the same exact thing - just in different combos.

I AM NOT SAYING TO DO THIS...but if you look at some other sites, it appears the list of foods OK to cook is a lot longer.

It looks like Mastrad is the manufacturer?? (I am at work so I can't fully look into it), but here is the link to their website:

It mentions carrots, beets, and some other fruits. Again, OUR use & care does NOT say these are OK.

I am bringing mine to work tomorrow..and I have a few extra tortilla shells that I am going to bring as well to try out.

I have tried tortillas.. Just did corn tortillas sliced up and spritzer with some oil and salt. Turned out great. Flour tortillas were not successful.

I've done flour tortillas successfully! It was the corn torillas that tasted nasty to me, but they did chip up nicely.

What did you put on them?

 

[Jennie50]

What did you put on them?

I put Southwestern Seasoning on some, just salt on others. Been meaning to try cinnamon/sugar mix, but haven't yet.

The corn tortillas I had were thick, and they made the chips nearly impossible to bit into. They had a bitter taste, but it coulda just been the brand I was using. I'd love to know if someone has found a brand of corn tortillas that works well, 'cuz I'd like to serve them with salsa and dips.

did you spritz oil onto them or anything?

 

[Jennie50]

Yes, sprayed 'em with olive oil ('cuz that's what I had in my spritzer) one time, and just dabbed a bit of water on them another time to help the seasonings stick.
