Craving Veggie Chips

Hey everyone :)

I'm having a serious craving for veggie crisp chips (not the rippled kind, but the kind that look like Lay's chips but are more crisp). I've bought them before at Whole Foods, but they are close to four dollars a bag. I want to make something similar at home...any suggestions?

Some of the chips are sweet potato, some are spinich, etc. I know someone reading this will know what I'm talking about. I'm not sure if they are fried or baked or what variety of veggies are in a bag. :blink:

Help, anyone? thanks a million. -Julie ;)

I don't think this is quite what you're looking for, but I love Terra chips- they're made from root vegetables (sweet potatoes, yucca, beets, and others), and you can get them at the grocery store, although they are still 3 or 4 dollars a bag

Hak,

Thanks for the reply...are the chips very crispy and not rippled (like a Ruffles chip is)? I'm thinking Terra is the brand. Any idea how I would go about making them?

I don't usually like potato chips, but like you said, these are made from a variety of veggies so it's not a "traditional" chip.

We're kind of tight financially right now...plus, I'm having a difficult time finding them at my local store.

Again, thanks for the help. :) -Julie

Unfortunately I have no idea how you might make them! Sorry!! But I do think they're fried if you're feeling adventurous.

Julie do you have a mandoline? :)

I bet you could just relace the potatoes with whatever you're craving...

Have you tried looking them up on Amazon?

Often if you can find them there, you can find a link on the listing to the manufacturer which would give your local store some idea how to order them. Also, you almost always have to buy things like that in bulk on Amazon which does sometimes cut the per bag cost, though delivery can cut into the savings. Still, if you're desperate, and believe me I know the feeling, it can be an option.

Personally I'd kill for a potato free, sunflower oil free ANYTHING.

Hi Violet :)

Just tried Amazon...no luck. <_< But your idea was great! I'll keep checking in with Amazon.

Hak and Sickchick,

Looks like I'll be frying some chips! (Also went to the Wil-Son website for the recipe) B)

Confession:

Honest to God Collette, ten years of college and I thought a mandoline was a musical instrument! :huh::rolleyes::ph34r:

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.
