What is a healthy alternative to tortilla chips if you'd like to eat salsa? Any ideas? Thanks!

    I use pita cut it up and spray it with some pam and then a little seasoning then bake them for a few minutes!

    Corn tortillas cut up and baked aren't bad either. Unfortunately there isn't a great substitution for fried chips!

    Guiltless Gourmet tortilla chips are only 120 calories a serving (18 chips), which is pretty good I think. And I can actually pronounce everything on the ingredient list, which is nice. Sometimes I just cut up plain corn tortillas and bake them in the oven. No oil needed.

    Melba toast. It's less fattening, crunchy and satisfies

    I really like Wild Harvest organic yellow tortilla chips, with Glen Muir Garlic Cilantro organic salsa...yum! I like that there's lots of flavor, great texture and less sodium than "regular" chips and salsa.

    I know it isnt a snack, but I love salsa with fish fillets, very yummy.
    Pitta is good, just pop it in the toaster,

    Baked tortilla chips are really good, low in calories.

    Great suggestions, ladies! I'm excited to try this. I love salsa too and couldn't seem to part with tortilla chips and I won't eat flour tortillas anymore.

    I like the Olive Tortilla chips by "Food Should Taste Good". They have a good sweet potato tortilla chip as well, but it's sweeter. I don't dip the sweet potato ones in anything.
  • I often eat Genisoy Soy chips and salsa.

    I'm glad I came across this thread because I'm a chip and salsa lover myself. I'll have to try a few of these ideas!

    My stepdad buys Ezikiel (sprouted grain) tortillas, brushes them with EVOO, and bakes them in the oven until they are a little crispy (more chewy). They taste pretty good.

    I like "Garden of Eatin" blue corn chips (in the organic section at my stores)... I can't seem to get on their website right now to get a nutritional panel, but they sure do taste good.
