Happy National Potato Chip Day! If you recall, I mentioned this remarkable holiday in March’s Monthly Musts post because, well, who wouldn’t want to celebrate potato chips!?!
It’s funny though, I never was a huge potato chip eater… I mean, I have never not liked them but I didn’t eat a lot of them growing up and even as an adult, I never would buy chips just to have in the house. Pretzels have always been my go-to snack over any chip, any day, but then I developed this gluten allergy and ever since, things have changed! I’ve definitely become a bigger fan of the potato chip over the past few months. Why you ask? They are always available at pretty much every restaurant and party that I’ve attended and these days, you can find potato chips that aren’t terrible for you {read: greasy, fattening, or extremely salty}. On top of that, they curb my appetite for carbs! Who needs sandwich bread when you can use a perfect chip instead? I like to put turkey, tuna, or chicken salad on a few chips and will totally feel fulfilled with my meal afterwards!
Also… my husband LOVES potato chips more than anyone else in the world that I’ve ever known to love potato chips before. Which means now I do always have them in my pantry. So, there’s that.
While I have a bunch of favorites {ie: these, these, these, and these, and ummm these too!}, I did some pinteresting {follow me, guys!!} and found SO MANY amazing looking potato chip recipes to cook at home! Because, honestly, it’s fine to buy them in the store or on Amazon but it’s even better to make them yourself and know exactly what’s in them… leaving you to feel totally okay about devouring every.last.one in one sitting! #amiright?!?!
