Step 2: Wash Your Taters!
Grab your trusty potato scrubber and get working!
For you dunces out there, this is how you wash a potato.
Run warm water and scrub your potato under it, don't scrub it to hard or else you will remove to skin, just enough to remove to dirt.
Now would be a good time to preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Step 3: Cut Your Taters/Prepare the Pan.
Pick up your knife.
CAREFULLY! Please don't get hurt. Im sure blood doesn't taste very good on potato chips.
Cut your potato in half and begin slicing them into slices about 1/4 of an inch thick. (Or smaller it depends on your preferences.)
Take the alumminum foil and cover the top part of you pan. Also, start spraying away at it with you favorite brand of nonstick spray. Make sure there is an equal coat all across the foil.
The purpose of the foil is for an easy cleanup, when your done all you have to do is pull off the foil, a very easy cleanup for a teenager like myself.

Step 4: It's Seasoning Time!

Sprinkle all of these ingredients equally on the potatoes.
-1 tsp of salt (Any type, but I prefer sea salt)

Step 5: Pop Em' in the Oven.
Grab you favorite oven mitt (I prefer my plaid one with a pumpkin on it) and pop 'em in. These babies should cook for about 19-20 minutes. Times vary for each oven so it may be slightly off.
Step 6: Enjoy!
Put on your oven mitt and slide the pan out of the oven. Use your spatula to scoop them into a bowl. Pull off the foil and throw it into the garbage. Pop these suckers into your mouth and enjoy!!
