Do you guys have any suggestions on getting my "potato chip" craving cured? I need something healthy thats crunchy/salty... Im not fond of rice cakes unless they are carmel. My huge love was a whole bag of Chex Mix. I loved that stuff...

    There are some good baked crackers by Pepperidge Farm, or Wheat thins. I also find some mixed nuts with sea salt are good. The almonds offer a good crunch factor.

    Pop Chips! 100 calories for one bag. They're not baked or fried, but popped with air. They come in 3 flavours and are all yummy!!

    I'm a Chex Mix addict too! But now I go for Pop Chips too - Barbecue is my favorite variety. If you have a Trader Joe's nearby, they also have some good crunchy things that satisfy that craving. Been munching down on their Savory Rice Crackers with Soy lately - but have to hide them from hubby or he'll eat the whole bag! :laugh: They are nothing like a rice cake - thin and crunchy, they sound like poker chips in the bag! :tongue:

    I keep a bag of sliced mini cucumbers in the fridge. When I have that salty-crunchy craving I pull out a few and sprinkle just a bit of salt on them. I know it's a bit of a reach as a subsitute for chips, but it has been working for me so thought I would suggest it.

    Another fan of PopChips. I love the vinegar and salt variety.

    One of my other go-tos is baked tortilla chips and salsa. The Guiltless Gourmet chips are quite tasty and very reasonable calories.

    Another salty snack I love, though not at all chip-like, is hummus on grape tomatoes. It's such a nice contrast of crisp and creamy with salty and sweet.

    Popcorn, good ol plain popcorn. Throw a few tbs in a brown bag, in the microwave on your popcorn setting and BAM! 130 calories of delicious crunchy goodness. Add some seasoning if you'd like.

    I recently got the special K SOUTHWESTERN RANCH (I think all the others suck!) chips. You can eat 27 chips for 110 cals and they are delishous! I would eat them at lunch with my wrap or sandwich. Best low cal chips I have found!
