• Try seasoning with garlic powder, rosemary, or chili powder for different flavor profiles.
• Use sweet potatoes instead of regular potatoes for a sweeter and colorful variation.

Storage

Store leftover baked potato slices in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 5-10 minutes to restore crispiness.
