Anyone have any ideas for something low calorie to dip in Salsa? I love to make homemade salsa but most of the chips I've found are like 130 for 8 chips!! And no celery please, I hate it. LOL

This loses the "dipping" aspect, but you can put it in a bowl of cottage cheese and eat it with a spoon. Savory cottage cheese is actually much better than you think it will be. You can also pour it all over baked chicken and eat it with a fork.

Veggies! Dip broccoli, or carrots, or bell peppers...

You can bake some veggies in the oven... potatoes, carrots, zucchini, onions, etc, and put it over top, or just dip them in!

Glad I'm not the only one who hates celery with a passion. I swear it tastes bitter to me.

I use sliced cucumbers like chips. I remove the seeds, slice them into sticks and add alittle salt. You'll be surprised how tastey they can be.

You can brush a little olive oil on a thin pita or flat bread and bake it in the oven. I am not sure if this will be lower calorie than the chips but it would be healthier

I use bell peppers for chips when I make guacomole. We recently made fresh salsa, well it is more of a pico and I have had a few times I have put some in a bowl and eaten it with a spoon.

I also like salsa on my eggs...I may have some for lunch.

Bell peppers, eggs, and whomever said olive oil + baked pita ... YES! SO DELICIOUS!

I also make sweet potato chips. Just skin and slice a sweet potato, toss in just a little bit of olive oil, then bake until browned. Absolutely delicious, and far healthier than any chip you can buy in the store.

Sliced cucumber, jicama, apple, hot carrot slices and so on...yummy!

I make my egg white omelet with veggies place on plate, then in same skillet heat up salsa and pour over top of eggs. I beautiful meal, don't miss the cheese this way.

I also put it over my veggie subsititues for starches. We use salsa a lot in the house.

I use tortilla chips still tostitos makes one called bite sized chips and it's about 140 cals for 14 chips it really is a lot of them when you count them out! and salsa is only 10 cals so for salsa and chips it's only 150 cals for a yummy indulgent snack

I cut tortillas (usually corn, but flour are OK too) into wedges and bake on a non-stick pan, maybe with a little salt or taco seasoning. If the salsa's good enough, you won't notice that the 'chips' aren't actual chips. I also have done the same with pita bread, and I have dipped vegetables in salsa too.

[BananaMarie]

sliced cucumbers!

[Sherrie568]

I use bite size tortilla chips, 140 cal for 21 chips, and low sodium, too.

Guiltless Gourmet makes blue corn chips that are 18 for 120 calories. When I really want chips and salsa, that's what I use.
