Gina Aliotti urges people to ditch the chips and go for roasted seaweed. Say whaaaaat? yup.
On the road or maybe just looking for that perfect snack food? When you get the munchies or crave something salty and crunchy (we all do), don’t even think about going for those triangles of death ie. chips, consider trying Seaweed snacks. Now offered at Trader Joes and several local grocery stores, these pre-cut seaweed squares are perfect to satisfy that craving without all the fat and calories. I have always been a Nori (seaweed) lover, making my famous cabbage wraps, as seen in my DVD, but now they offer the prepackaged snack versions that are great for on the go!! With 60 calories, 4 grams of fat and the added bonus of vitamin C, A and iron, it is a perfect healthy $0.99 snack! If you’ve never tried roasted seaweed, give it a try. Dieting or not, it is worth the minuscule calories while satisfying that craving!!!
