New Gadget

Maybe this isn't a gadget in the sense of "something that moves and does 10 different things", but to me, it fits in as a "kitchen gadget".

Pampered Chef's Microwave Chip Maker is so fun!  Who wouldn't want to make their own chips, without frying?

Here's how I did it:
Using the mandolin, slice potatoes (or sweet potatoes) thin and lay on a paper towel.
Place another paper towel over the top and, using a rolling pin, get out the excess moisture. The less moisture, the crispier the chips so press hard!
Place a single layer on the Microwave Chip Maker and microwave according to the directions.  If you want, you can sprinkle some salt or seasoning salt on the chips before microwaving.
Before:
After:
Presto! Crispy chips without the grease!
