recipe: EZEKIEL CHIPS

My name is Bad Joan and I am addicted to crunchy snacks.  It is a definite problem but I figure if you can't beat 'em find a way to be smart about it!  Insert Ezekiel chips.  Ezekiel tortillas are made from sprouted grains and they are high in Potassium, Protein and Fiber.  And in just a few short steps you can turn them into crunchy tortilla chips...



INGREDIENTS:
  • 1 bag Ezekiel Tortillas
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • salt

INSTRUCTIONS:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with foil.

Place tortilla on a cutting board.  Brush both sides with olive oil.  Cut tortilla into strips and/or triangles.  Place tortilla pieces on foil lined baking sheet in one layer, do not overlap. 

When the sheet is full sprinkle with salt and place in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes.  Chips should be about 2 shades darker and hard/crispy when they are finished.

Place in a zip lock bag or tupperware container to store.

Makes about 12 chips per tortilla, about 72 chips per bag.


Enjoy your new crunchy and savory (but still good for you) snacks!

GTBB,
Bad Joan

  5. If your looking for a healthy crunchy snack, roasted pumkin seeds are amazing! Almost every morning I roast a different variety of pumpkin/squash to share with my canine companions, along with a glass pan of veggies and yams. I scrape out the seeds and rinse them clean, sometimes saving the seeds from a choice variety. The seeds that dont get saved are roasted in the oven for a few minutes and I then either toss them in olive oil, salt & cayanne or blend them into a hemp & cilantro caesar dressing. The roasted seeds are an excellent way to have a crunchy snack for the day.
