    Here's a link to an allrecipes recipe for Kale chips..... http://allrecipes.com/recipe/baked-kale-chips/ (I didn't use parchment paper but mine could have used less oil but maybe I didn't use enough Kale??? Oh and just a tip.... they will soak up salt like crazy so if you salt, salt lightly... :-)

    but raw kale is soooooo delish!

    I'm obsessed with oatmeal. It is odd. I hated it as a child, but I love it now. It is healthy, has antioxidants, protein, its filling, relatively low calorie, blah blah blah, I could go on forever.

    If by "diet food" you mean low-cal/reduced fat then "none".

    I like real food and I am generally obsessed with all food in all its deliciousness.

    Yep, same :)

    Yumnuts - toasted coconut (I purchase them off Amazon and don't know where else carries them) AND peeled snacks - mango (they carry them at Starbucks or on Amazon)! Both are soooo yummy, but I usually go to yumnuts when I need to fill up calories and the peeled snacks are just my everyday snack ;)

    I've never added peanut butter. I will have to try that.

    And if you have calories to spare, add half a mashed banana or half a chopped apple as well - it adds natural sweetness, so there is no need for sugar or sweeteners.

    Yuck! I hate better n peanut butter! It tastes so fake! I can't believe no one here has said PB2 or even better chocolate PB2!!! Now that stuff is the best! 45 cals for 2 tablespoons and soooo good!!!

    That is too bad you think it tastes fake since it has nothing fake in it. To each his own. I have had PB2 in the past and don't remember much about it that left an impression either way.

    I just didn't like the texture of better n peanut butter. It was a bit more sticky than thick and creamy to me. But if it works for you then cool!

    LOL, you are right it is sticky! I have sworn at many a knife that I didn't rinse off right away LOL!

    Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream, Peach Cobbler flavor

    I'm so glad other people know about that flavor! That is my all-time favorite :D When I lived in Connecticut, I could rarely find that flavor. But when I moved to Ohio last month, I keeled over when I saw that practically every grocery store carries it. It's like stumbling upon the Bovine Treat Holy Land! ^_^

    How the heck is this a diet food???

    I guess it depends on your definition of a diet... it doesn't have to mean it's calorie free, but that you do have to watch the portion size and count the cals.

    for a HALF A CUP (do you know how small that is?) it's 220 cals, 11 grams of fat, and 26 grams of sugar. it's a once in awhile treat, not part of a diet.

    False, if you have room in your daily calorie allotment, it CAN be an everyday thing. Some of the people on here eat B&J every day and still look fantastic.

    I guess Sea Snax/dried seaweed.
    It is very low calorie, but has NO nutritional value, and is EXPENSIVE!
    I try not to buy it often.
    But it's so tasty....!

    Dr McDougle's Big Bowl Hot and Sour Organic Ramen.

    With a little bit of Tamari in it.

    Freaking delicious. Filling enough for a meal, @ 170 calories can be a snack!

    have you tried the spring veggie soup? OMG! If it weren' such a trek to get it I'd eat Dr. McDougle's soup cups every day!
