I AM A CHIP GIRL.......truthful, honest, chip-acholic! I love all things crunchy and salty, it is a major problem and one I am working on.........until the craving for salty lusciousness comes once a month. You all know what I mean right?
Need them, want them, MUST HAVE them.....
Good news is they are whole wheat, made with olive oil cooking spray and it makes only enough for a single serving, so go ahead and eat the whole thing, without sharing of course!
No left overs and no guilt!
Homemade and baked is the way to splurge when you are watching your weight, need the salt fix, but still want to see a weight loss on the scale.
I use my little convection toaster oven for this and don't even bother with my big oven. It takes less time to heat up and works super fast!

I have to ask, what is that dip you have paired with the pita chips? Both look delicious and I might bring that to a family gathering this week! Awesome blog 😀
Brenda
Thanks! It was artichoke and spinach hummus which was store bought LOL!

I found you through Blogelina's link-up and I have to say, I am so excited to be subscribing to your blog. I also try to lead a sugar-free and flour less diet but finding others that have yummy recipes out there is a bit of a challenge. Can't wait to try some of your recipes and I actually have done whole wheat pita chips before-they are yummy!
Are you currently in Blogelina's class? Would you like to exchange notes, share advice, and keep in touch? I unfortunately had to miss class this week but will be joining next Tuesday. What did you think of this week's class? By the way, what blog theme did you use for your blog and did you use a blog designer or do all the work yourself? "See" you in class next week!

I like the pita chip because I only make one and no more! If I had a bag of chips around I wouldn't be able to control myself at all either! Thanks for visiting Aggie!
