For the chicken salad, I'm gonna switched to tuna or chickpeas, will that herb (I forgot the name of it) be a good match or a different herb will be better? Also I like the basic guac because if I decide to spice up my chips, I can dip it in something that'll balance out the flavor and vice versa. Also, what kind of spices can I use to make bbq/honey bbq chips?
@MindOverMunch3 жыл бұрын
Hi Audrey, great questions! Yes, tarragon (the herb used in the video) would be very tasty and a great match with either tuna or chickpeas. If you want to try something different, parsley is a great option as well! As for making BBQ chips, a combination of spices like salt, chili powder, brown sugar, garlic powder, and onion powder would give you a sweet BBQ-like flavor 😋
@wendyb803 жыл бұрын
I think Peanut or Almond butter would be amazing on those pancakes, especially because of the oats they will be a little nutty tasting anyway. And that Banana bread, omg! Your pita look like flat English muffins. I would like to see a traditional meal like cheeseburgers and fries or spaghetti and meatballs, but bento sized (and obviously healthier).

If you're looking for lower sugar options, there are some low-carb syrup alternatives made with monk fruit and/or stevia. (Lakanto, Birch Benders & ChocZero are a few brands that I can think of off the top of my head.) Or, serve your pancakes with something else, like fruit jam or jelly!
