Description
Healthy vegetable chips that provide satisfying crunch with anti-inflammatory benefits—guilt-free snacking that supports wellness
Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cook Time: 15-20 minutes | Total Time: 30 minutes | Makes: 40-50 healthy chips

Ingredients
- 8 oz fresh green beans, washed and trimmed (provides low-calorie fiber and satisfying crunch)
- 1 tbsp olive oil (helps spice adherence and contributes healthy fats)
- 1/2 tsp ground turmeric (adds powerful anti-inflammatory compounds for joint health)
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon (contributes natural sweetness and blood sugar regulation)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F and line baking sheet with parchment paper for even heat distribution and easy cleanup after healthy chip preparation.
- Wash and trim green beans thoroughly, cutting into uniform 2-3 inch pieces for consistent cooking and appropriate snacking sizes (if your dog starts getting excited at the vegetable prep sounds, you’re creating healthy magic).
- Toss beans with olive oil in large bowl until each piece is lightly coated but not dripping for optimal crisping results.
- Add turmeric and cinnamon to oiled beans, tossing thoroughly until every piece is evenly coated with beneficial spice mixture.
- Arrange seasoned beans in single layer on prepared baking sheet with no overlapping for proper air circulation during healthy crisping.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, checking halfway through and flipping for even browning—start checking at 15 minutes to prevent overcooking.
- Cool completely before serving to achieve maximum crispiness that makes healthy snacking satisfying and safe for eager mouths.
Notes
- Always use fresh green beans that snap crisply for best texture and nutrition
- Perfect for dogs needing low-calorie snacks or anti-inflammatory support
- The combination of fiber and beneficial spices supports multiple wellness systems
- Amber prefers these stored properly where they maintain perfect crunch and anti-inflammatory potency
Storage Tips
- Store in airtight containers in cool, dry places for up to 1 week maximum
- Don’t expose to humidity—vegetable chips lose satisfying crunch quickly
- Keep away from heat to preserve anti-inflammatory compound effectiveness
- Label with dates because you’ll want to track freshness for maximum health benefits
