Red Meat Allergy Friendly Ranch-Style Plantain Chips

Crunchy, herby, and completely addictive, these baked plantain chips deliver everything you love about a classic ranch snack without a single ingredient that could trigger a red meat reaction. Green plantains are the star here — sliced paper-thin and baked in coconut oil until they turn golden and shatteringly crisp at the edges. The homemade ranch seasoning blend of parsley, chives, dill, garlic, and onion powder is 100% plant-based, so there's no guessing about what's hiding in a store-bought seasoning packet. A quick splash of apple cider vinegar tossed on while the chips are still hot is the secret move that makes every bit of seasoning cling perfectly. Bagged chips marketed as "ranch flavor" can be a minefield of ambiguous natural flavors and shared production lines, so making your own batch from scratch is genuinely the smarter call. These cool down to a satisfying crunch in about ten minutes, and they disappear just as fast — consider doubling the batch.
