As an lover of crisps (like crisps more than choc) this low carb diet hasn't been easy. But having looked at websites (can't remember the website to link back to) I have found something that cures the craving! Cheese Crisps, and they are so simple to make.
Simply grate some cheese, I used medium cheddar. apply some baking paper to a microwaveable plate and spread the cheese into a circle. Microwave for 50secs.... yummy
So far my middles havent been very sucessful as in a get an O shape with a soggy hole in the middle, but the edges are crispy and they are a good substitute.
Enjoy

I do something similar, grate parmesan, cheddar, and any bits and bobs of cheese you may have, sprinkle a tiny bit of paprika in and some black pepper, then pop little scrunched up balls on a baking tray and pop into the oven,
Watch them they dont take long, then take them out when all melted and crisp. delish
Ive often fine grated some onion in, not much but they make great crisps
Could even try salt and vinegar in the mix have also used tex mex cheese for a kick

H ladies
I will indeed give this a try as I do love my crisps and find it very hard to do without them..no willpower.
A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep

You can do this with celariac, use spray oil and then bake them.

Looks like a lot of effort for a bag of crisps, though.
I do miss Wotsits!
