Need Something Crunchy To Replace Chips?

[lapbandchic73 39]

Just the thought of having something other than liquids or mushie. At when point do I get to start eatting regular food. Pickles, Nuts, Peanut Butter..(whooho) there are just a few things that Im missing. Im missing the feeling of grinding my teeth on something. I did chew a piece of meat the other day just cause I was needing that feeling of grinding something. I know Im only 5 days post-op. But hating the liquid and mushie stage. Ready for something real.

Take some grated or thinly sliced cheese of any kind and put on parchment paper in the oven (on a cookie sheet) at 425 for 5 minutes. Once bubbly, take out and let cool. When you remove from the parchment paper you can use it as a chip or cracker substitute. I sometimes make a taco shell out of these by making them bigger and rolling them over a rounded object while it's still warm to form a shell shape. They're super tasty!

I saw a recipe on pinterest that is sliced zucchini sprinkled with shredded parmesan cheese and baked. I haven't tried them yet but they looked really good! Look like they might be good for dipping...

I get the Quest chips on Netrition. They fit the Protein supplement requirements my nutritionist established: no more than 5 gms fat, 7 gms carbs and at least 20 gms of protein. Love them!
