Let me just start by saying....  you are welcome!  :-)  This is the answer for any of you out there who love chips, love the crunch, and love your salty fix. It can be tough to get enough of that when you're eating right! This is your go-to snack for all of the above reasons.

Ingredients for this recipe (SO simple!)

​-1 bag fancy grade unsweetened coconut flakes (find them here)
-1-2 TBSP coconut oil 
-sea salt

Preheat your oven to 325 degrees. Then start with your one bag of coconut flakes like these shown below. I recommend this kind especially because the flakes are large and will not crumble as much like a lot of other coconut flakes out there. I have had the best results using these!

Empty contents of the bag onto a cookie sheet. Melt the coconut oil and drizzle over the flakes. Sprinkle with sea salt to taste, and mix it all through with your hands.

Lastly, bake in the oven at 325 degrees for about 7-9 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. What you are left with is a delicious, crunchy salty snack that is all completely healthy fats and just yummy goodness. Just be careful... it is so easy to eat the whole batch at once!  :-)  I like to eat these by themselves, or mix these in with a homemade trail mix too. So delicious.
