Ok so I have been (am) on the hunt for low carb foods that will replace chips. And boy have I tried a lot!! Anyway i ran across a product the other day that I think will help.

The are called Moon Pops. They are kind of like very thin rice cakes. I wouldn't say they are flavorfull....more like the absence of flavor. But they are crunchy and thats what I needed.

They have 16 calories/0 fat/ 4 carbs for 1 piece about a 6" circle. They don't hold up well to heat, they get rubbery--like a stale cheese puff. but they are good with a thin layer of peanut butter or a thin layer of cream cheese and sugar free jam, a thin layer of your favorite dip....I even put a thin layer of refriend beans,cheese and ff sour cream.

They real have no flavor so they just provide the crunch I was looking for.

I found them at kroger in virginia, but have not seen then anywhere else...maybe on line.

Just thought I would share.

Does anyone else have a good suggestion? I have considered veggies already...while good...they taste like veggies with a topping.

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!

Quest makes a good chip. full of protein and good carbs. You can get them off their site online.

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!
