Irish Potato Chips: Baked (Healthier option)

           The journey of adopting healthy eating lifestyle requires us to make swaps in cooking methods. Irish potato chips is everyone's fave. However frying adds in lots of calories especially when consumed together with other fried foods. This simple recipe will not only cut down calories from frying, but gives that crunchy crisp taste like fried chips. 



Ingredients (serving size: 3)
  • 2 big size Irish potato (Peeled)
  • Salt to taste
  • Paprika
  • curry
  • pepper to taste (I used black pepper)
  • 2 tbsp Vegetable Oil 


Preparation Method (Prep time: 20-minutes; Baking time: 1 hr- 1hr:30minutes)
  1. Cut Potato into vertical chips shape (see image) and place in a bowl
  2. Add in salt, paprika, curry, pepper, oil and mix properly.
  3. Allow to sit for 10-minutes to enhance flavor into chips
  4. Heat oven to 400 F and bake chips until crisp.
  5. Serve warm or hot with sauce, ketchup


Ready to be baked!!
How I ate Mine:
I paired my chips (baked) with home-made fried wings (see recipe: https://www.nutrientdoctor.com/2019/01/fried-chicken-wings.html) and spinach salad.



Notes: swapping fried chips for baked chips cuts down calories. Add in a salad leaves me fuller (fiber) and reduces the amount of chips/ wings I get to consume. You can use local oven in the absence of electric.
HEALTHY EATING AIN'T STARVATION. It only requires knowledge and practice!!

Bok-Choy/ Lettuce Sharwama (low-carb)

Hello friends,           I recently made a slight change to my diet by reducing the amount of carbs I eat for dinner (Reasons I will be explaining in a book soon!!). I started trying new low-carb recipes and boy o boy did  bok-choy/ lettuce sharwama win a gold medal. This sharwama taste as delicious as regular sharwama and they richer in fiber, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and lower in calories ideal for weight management/ weight loss. For the dressing I used, reduced fat Mayo by Hellman which supplies ONLY 25-calories per tablespoon. You can use olive oil/ canola as a substitute for the mayo. Did I forget to add that you can get this meal fixed under 30-minutes? I used bok-choy for this recipe, however, if you use lettuce, you will get the-same perfect taste as with bok-choy. Ingredients 3 Bok-choy OR lettuce boats (washed & strained) 1 whole tomatoes (diced) 1/4 avocado (diced) Scrabbled eggs (Using 3 egg whites, onion...
