I found this "recipe" for sweet potato chips/fries:
peel and slice sweet potatoes in 1/4-1/2" slices
put them on a piece of foil sprayed with olive oil
bake at 200-250 F for 1 hr, then turn over and bake for another hour or so
watch to make sure they don't burn!
(the thicker they are, the longer they take)
they get more chewy when you put them in a ziplock in the fridge, but pups still love them!
And this one too:
steam the potatoes first
then plop them into boiling water (helps get the skin off really easily)
(Don't cook them too much or they will crumble!)
slice them into whatever shape you want--chips or long strips for chewing
then bake at a low temperature until you get the texture (chewy/crispy/etc...) you want
Just remember that sweet potatoes are very high in manganese, so you shouldn't give too much, especially if you have a symptomatic dog (neurological symptoms especially)!
