    Recipes: Healthy Chips

    Chips. Why are you so good yet so unhealthy?

    I mean, chips are so addictive. You open a bag, stick your hand in, and before long, they’re gone. And unfortunately, they’re not always the healthiest choice on the shelf.

    Well, we’ve got the solution to quell your chip cravings without sacrificing your precious diet!

    The key is to swap the potatoes out for some veggies or dried fruits. You can still keep the regular texture of chips with some added kick or sweetness, depending on what you’re going for.

    Let’s explore a few ways you can cook up some tasty chips to munch on free of guilt! You won’t want to go back to processed bags ever again.
