It’s snack time and today we’re going to make some really quick Bagel Chips and a low carb protein dip to go with them!

First, we’re gonna prepare our bagel chips or bagel crisps depending on where you’re from (let me know what you call them below).

To prepare these you can either use a bread knife or just a really sharp knife (don’t slip!). I prefer the bread knife.

The goal is to make each bagel chip as thin as possible, I’d say you want at least 3 chips from each half or you won’t really get a “chip” out of it.

As for the kind of bagel you use? That’s completely up to you! I’m using some everything and cinnamon raisin ones today.

Next, mix together a couple tablespoons of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon of Italian seasoning, and a couple tablespoons of some grated parmesan cheese.

Place your bagel chips onto a baking sheet and lightly spread that mix onto both sides of each chip. I use a pastry brush (link below) to do this but a spoon will work too.

Toss those in the oven on 350F/176C for around 5-10 minutes or until desired crispiness.

Bagel Chips Protein Dip

While those are baking, we’ll make our quick tuna protein dip.

All you need to make this Dip? A bowl, can of tuna, 4 ounces of cream cheese, 4-6 tablespoons of salsa, and a squirt of lemon.

Mix those ingredients up until smooth and you’re done!

Tips:

• Add some crushed red pepper into your olive oil mix for a kick
• Look for lower sodium alternatives
