can you have veggie chips in ph 1?

batty · 05-09-2008, 10:09 AM

I wondered could you have veggie chips in ph 1 since I love chips and crunchy things?

tinatina · 05-09-2008, 10:54 AM

batty - I think they have to be limited in any phase because they are deep fried???? Hopefully someone with more knowledge about them will pop in and give you more advice

Thanks tinatina,do you have the recipes for garbonza beans?The one for these baked in the ovenI can't find one.Thnakyou!

Short answer, No.

Celery, green peppers, raw cauliflower, etc. are crunchy.

batty - i saw in the other thread that you found the roasted chickpeas recipe and they were mushy? Not sure what recipe you found but, I ready somewhere that someone makes them in the evening and then leaves them in the oven all night and this is what I did and they turned out crunchy. I had a couple of mushy ones but not many. HTH!

batty · 05-12-2008, 01:16 PM

Thanks tinatina,I'll try them that way.

I've got mine in the oven now for the night.

lilymo · 06-05-2008, 05:19 AM

Hi girls, mine came out mushy too, so I will try them again. But they are so addictive~

PghMarsha · 06-06-2008, 04:23 AM

I do the roasted beans all the time. I put them in the oven at 425 for 20 minutes then turn off the oven and let them sit. I have one of those super insulated ovens so it stays hot for a long time so YMMV. The last batch was in there for 2 days before I remembered them.

Some veggie chips are baked and not fried...but due to the fact that they are generally made from root veggies, they are not legal for a phase I snack.

I have them once in a while in phase III....but I'm very careful as too much salty crunchy food can trigger me to eat more.

If you are lookng for a salty crunchy snack for phase I, I used to save my nut portion of pistachios as my nightly snack. I got the ones in the shells as it slowed me down and by the time I ate 30, I was happy.

batty · 06-09-2008, 05:22 AM

Thanks everyone Thats a good idea judynyc.I'll save my nuts for night time snacking thats usally when i crave salty foods anyways.

Another option would be the turkey pepperoni chips. Line a plate with paper towel. Lay the pepperoni on the towel. Micro wave them for 3 minutes or so. As they cool they will get crunchy. They are really good.

And they are very high in sodium!!! I tend to avoid this type of highly processed meat.
