Just fabulous. Good even without the rosemary. I used 1/16" width on the mandoline

A Mandolin is absolutely necessary to slice thin enough. I sprayed with olive oil (from Misto) on plate and top of chips. We used chili and garlic powder for seasoning (based on what we were eating it with).

I used a mandolin to slice them thin and they turned out very tasty. You do have to change the microwave to level 9 otherwise they burn. also had to place them on a plate for them to cool and become crisp. Not a hard crisp but both my husband I really liked them. Also very fast as the microwave really does dry them out. will definitely make again. I also sprayed them with cooking spray and sprinkled a little cinnamon and sugar instead of the spices which we liked much better.
