Potato Chips ala Greek???

So, most of the time, I don't eat chips. I mean, I like them, most of them, but they're not great for you. Hence, I try not to eat them. In the summer, however, all that watch-what-you-eat stuff goes right out the window, especially around the pool with a bevvy in my hand.

Speaking of bevvy - I'll get to the Greek thing in a sec - one of my absolute faves is a nice refreshing mojito. I pick fresh mint that I grow in a pot outdoors because it spreads like a weed and I don't want it totally taking over my gardens. In a glass, I put the juice of half a lime, add 12 - 15 mint leaves, muddle, add a couple of teaspoons of splenda, ice to the top, an ounce of rum and top with Club Soda. Enjoy!!!!!

Ok, so after a couple of those, the bets are off and it's a major chip-fest - even with the veggie platter right there. Well, this past weekend I tasted a new chip. It was a thick ripple and the flavour was olive, basil and feta cheese .... Greek! I know! I was thinking, this is so wrong for a chip, right? Well, then I tasted them - gotta say, not too bad at all! Was it the mojitos? You'll have to try them and judge for yourself!
