Snack healthier with Wicked Crisps

Many people are snackers who enjoy nibbling and snacking on snacks through-out the day, my family is no different, we enjoy a good snack and like to keep munchies in the house. Snacking isn't always the healthiest thing to do so we like keeping lots of healthier options around like apples, bananas, apple sauce, carrots, etc. but sometimes you get a craving for something crunchier like chips. Wicked Crisps is a healthier option to traditional potato chips, as described on their website "Wicked Crisps are the surprisingly healthy, baked chip with an irresistible, delectable taste. Chocked full of nutrition from veggies, herbs, and spices, in a variety of unique flavors, Wicked Crisps is a guilt-free treat for your taste buds"

I was recently sent four different flavors to try out with my family, we received Red Curry Hummus, Cheesy Cheese Pizza, Spring Vegetable Medley, and Sweet Potato Souffle. They also offer Roasted Garlic with Asiago Cheese, Spinach Parmesan, and Sea Salt with Hummus. Prior to last month, I had never heard of Wicked Crisps but I was immediately drawn to their packaging and flavors because they fit in with what I normally look for flavor wise. My kids are six and ten, both can be a bit picky with food so how well did these stand up to my two little critics? Let's find out! 

Before getting into what we thought of each flavor I want to note that the serving size on each is a pretty decent size, the crisps themselves are about 2 1/2-3" long and puffy so they are quite filling. These crisps are made in a facility that processes products with soy so beware if you have a soy allergy, I also wanted to point out some of these products have milk/honey solids so check the ingredients list if you are vegan. You can find Wicked Crisps online via Amazon or in-store at various Food Lion locations, in the near future they will be available at TJ Maxx and Marshalls as well.

We think the Sweet Potato Souffle (shown above) is more of a dessert crisp for when your sweet tooth is calling but you don't want candy or sweets. You can see in the photo above that each one is dusted with sugar and brown sugar. These give you the perfect balance of sweet and crunch with each bite! With the combination of the sugar and vanilla baked into this we all thought they tasted a little like those marshmallows they put in cereal, we just couldn't quite place our finger on the exact cereal brand it reminded us of. You don't need a ton of these to feel satisfied, five or six does the trick so this bag will last a while. Each bag contains four servings (about 21 crisps), which contains 120 calories and 23g of carbs. 

Cheesy Cheese Pizza was the clear favorite of the four, in fact it was enjoyed so much I don't have a photo of the pizza crisps on their own since there were no crisps left to take a photo of. The crisp had a wonderful aroma and are packed full of flavor, they start out with a tomato crisp and load it up with cheesy goodness. They tasted great on by themselves or if you are a dipper they go well with various dips as well. Each bag contains four servings (about 21 crisps), which contains 120 calories and 22g of carbs. 

Spring Vegetable Medley (shown in the image, above left) is a mixture that contains five different unique vegetable flavors which are tomato, spinach, broccoli, sweet potato, and field pea. I didn't think these were too bad however, my kids said they found them a bit bland and wished they had a little more seasoning to them. If you are feeling the same, they go well with a veggie dip to add a bit more flavor. Each bag contains four servings (about 21 crisps), which contains 120 calories and 22g of carbs.

Curry isn't typically a flavor I would purchase myself, simply because I've never tried it and I think of "spicy" when I hear it so going into this I wasn't sure how I'd feel about the Red Curry Hummus flavor. I am actually a pretty big fan of this flavor, it has so many bold and delectable flavors trying just one made me want to make a small bowl of them all for myself. The red curry wasn't spicy like I thought it was going to be, I can't quite describe or compare it to anything as it was an all new flavor to me. For anyone who loves curry or wants to try out something with curry that isn't also loaded with hot spicy flavors, I highly suggest giving these a try. My son didn't think they were too bad, but my daughter and husband didn't like them so I pretty much get the bag to myself. Each bag contains four servings (about 21 crisps), which contains 110 calories and 19g of carbs.
