What are some delicious savory recipes that call for potato chips?
-
Seeking unsweet recipes involving plain-flavored potato chips. Healthiness is no object. I overbought on potato chips for a party last weekend and now have 2 giant (I mean Costco-giant) bags of plain Ruffles resting atop the fridge. I love chips and dip as much as the next girl, but this quantity of potato chips requires a new level of creativity. I am not a fan of sweets, even salty sweets like http://www.abeautifulmess.com/2012/06/potato-chip-brownies-recipe.html. I have seen http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/07/25/recipes-made-with-potato-chips_n_1703510.html, which was helpful, but too heavily weighted towards desserts. Please submit your best recipes involving potato chips. No bias against http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/white-trash-cooking-ernest-matthew-mickler/1101870421?ean=9781607741886-style recipes. However, I do not have a deep fryer, so any recipes involving one will not be attempted in the Slenderloris Test Kitchen.

Answer:
You can grind them up, freeze them, and use them as needed instead of breadcrumbs.

I think of them as being good for encustenating other things you want to eat. The HuffPo article had some good suggestions like being the top layer of Mac and Cheese. When I was a kid we'd have a potato chip layer on top of tuna noodle casserole that was good contrast to the mush beneath. I think if I had this challenge I'd try to work a http://www.yummly.com/recipes/potato-chip-crust into other savory meat pie types of things like a chicken pot pie or a shepherd's pie. It won't really hold together like a pastry crust would but I bet it would be delicious.

Pretty much like above, except the iconic http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuna_casserole Macaroni, tuna, celery, wee wee bit of onion, peas, mushroom soup, canned mushrooms, and olives, put a smidgeon of cheese and then top with inch thick crushed potato chips. Bake.

Childhood delight in the UK - adding potato chips (crisps) to your existing sandwich. NOT a potato chip sandwich, but a normal sandwich with chips added. Works with pretty much any sandwich, but I recommend cheese sandwich, or ham-mayo-cheese sandwich. Oh, the bread must be a soft-crusted one though, hard crusts like french bread would be too much crunchiness.

I don't have an actual recipe, but my mom used to crush up potato chips and use them as a coating on cut-up roasted chicken. Kind of like shake 'n bake. I think she used curry powder in it. It was delicious! And now I want some.

One of the suggestions for topping Mac & Cheese we got when we did a video with the people from Homeroom, a mac & cheese resto in San Francisco, was to use potato chips as a topping when doing a baked mac.

Wow, no idea there were so many great potato chip ideas. For my part, I like to take advantage of their salty crunch to contrast with other foods -- not as a crust but as a... spoon, I guess. For example, salty chips with cottage cheese is a heavenly combination. (I guess you could crumble them over, but I always used them to scoop. Either way.) The same with chicken salad (especially when it falls out of my overstuffed deli sandwiches). Anything cool and moist...
