Quick Fix Habanero Pineapple Potato Chips

These quick fix habanero pineapple potato chips are different. Very different. If you’re tired of the same old 3 or 4 supermarket chip flavors, you’re gonna cure yourself with the first bite. Pineapple flavored chips are different for starters. A little sweet. Tropical. Then comes the heat. Habanero heat. ‘Not fooling around’ heat.

Cheap Chips. Great Results.

You don’t have to start out with expensive, name-brand chips when you make some quick fix salt pepper and garlic pineapple habanero chips. In fact, you’re gonna have great results with the cheapest chips you can find. Personally, I recommend wavy chips with ridges. Those ridges and waves help trap the seasonings and keep them on the chips. No big seasoning mounds in the bottom of the bowl here. You want that stuff to stick.

Go Light

I usually am pretty heavy handed with the seasoning when I flavor my chips. Not in this case, though. The seasoning is pretty forward. I recommend starting light and adding more after tasting, if needed.

Quick Fix Cheesoning Potato Chips

I’m bored with store-bought flavored chips. Oh sure, companies keep trying to come up with new flavors to get us to buy them but usually they just don’t ‘wow’ me. That’s why, more and more, I season store-bought chips at home. The flavors are only limited by my imagination. Well, and my pantry! Today I made a batch of quick fix cheesoning potato chips. They came out great. They taste like parmesan chips, but they have an herby twist. Nice and savory. And gone quick too.

Be Heavy Handed

The Cheesoning seasoning from Dan-O’s is fairly mellow. So, it’s ok to be heavy handed with the seasoning. Big time. Load them up. If I wanted wimpy flavored chips I’d have bought the pre-made stuff. I want flavor. Everywhere. All over.
