I recently received these new chips from Enjoy Life called Plentils.
“From ancient times to the present, the lentil has proven to be one of the best sources of plant-based protein. This legume is a staple in diets throughout the world, but leave it to Enjoy Life to capture the essence of its all-natural goodness and turn lentils into amazing chips.”
These chips are crazy good. Crunchy and really full of flavor.
They do not taste like lentils and they do not taste like a “healthy chip” and I mean that in the best way.
“This chip’s unique recipe results in a protein-packed, crunchy experience, bursting with flavor as you savor a great-tasting “better-for-you” chip.”
They’re vegan, gluten free, soy free, not greasy, not too salty, and their flavor is robust. The margherita pizza is the most flavorful, followed by sour cream and dill, followed by the sea salt, and I’m not a garlic fan in general so I haven’t tried those.
They are not airy, either. In fact, they are supremely crunchy and hearty. I love texture and massive crunch factor and these have it. They have plenty of substance and texture rather than that I just ate 200 calories of salt and air and nothing feeling.
You want these. Trust me.
If you want to eat lentils in other ways, I have these recipes using lentils (all are vegan and gluten free):
Ketchup & Mustard Lover’s Protein & Veggie Mash
Curried Ginger & Raisin Lentils
Chipotle Salsa Lentils with Mixed Vegetables
And here are a few homemade healthier chips and cracker recipes (all are vegan and gluten free):

Yum! A co-worker of mine gave me a bag of lentil chips a while back (I can’t remember the brand, but it wasn’t Enjoy Life) and they were delicious. I’m really interested in Enjoy Life’s Garlic & Parmesan chips, mostly because I’m really curious how the “Parmesan” tastes. Thanks for the giveaway!
Sunchips are pretty tasty :)
I love pretzel thins….(I think that’s what they’re called) shaped like a pretzel but flat.
Those garlic and parmesan lentil chips sound great….love lentils!
I love those Whales crackers! yum!
My favorite crackers are graham crackers! I would love to try the sea salt Plentils!
I love triscuits and if I get to trader joes…the Gorgonzola crackers.
