Last nite for a party I made sweet potato chips, and they were a big hit. I just dipped each one in very hot oil briefly and dried them on paper towels, applying a little sea salt afterwards. Someone told me you can do the same thing with eggplant. Any slices that were malformed, I ate raw. They were just as delicious as the cooked ones!!

I make sweet potato chips, too! In fact, I almost made them two nights ago (I got lazy and baked the SPs). I make mine in the oven, after lightly tossing them in olive oil, plus sea salt and cumin or cayenne or some combination or other spicy spice. I also do SP fries. But I've never tried eggplant chips -- what a great idea! I think they would also do well on a cookie sheet at 400.
I have leftover baked sweet potatoes, so I'm going to sauté some carrots and onions and garlic, maybe ginger or spice, add the sweet potatoes and broth, then puree for a vitamin-A-packed soup.
Last night's dinner was sashimi-grade tuna (on sale for $4/filet!) quickly seared, served with brown-rice pilaf and shredded coleslaw cabbage/onions/peppers, lightly sautéd with Asian flavors (peanut and sesami oils, garlic, ginger, rice wine and vinegar, soy, cayenne).
My sons only ate half of their tuna and little to none of the cabbage, so that will be my dinner tonight as well.
