Can we talk goals/intentions for just one second?
Before coming out to LA, I told myself that I’ll try to get into the habit of enjoying home-cooked meals more and saving brunch/lunch/meals out for special occasions and/or weekends. It’s not that I don’t eat at home- I do! However, I think my body (and mind) is getting sick of eating no-bake protein bars, cake batter oatmeal and brownies on repeat.
What’s wrong with eating brownies and bars though?
Nothing. It’s just this boy needs some variety.
Seeing as I eat whatever I shoot and/or leftovers for breakfast/lunch, dinners have been savory and OUT. I just can’t look at the kitchen, and the thought of turning on an oven or chopping some fresh ingredients makes me want to turn into an eggplant.
Safe to say, my intention to eat more home cooked meals have gone out the window. Don’t worry though- Next WIAW, it will be all home-made and 100% not reliant on bars/bites/balls/brownies.
Maybe.
How are you all today? It’s Wednesday which is the day I share a FULL day of eats with you and I’ll also be sharing a delicious (and ridiculously easy!) recipe!
Now on to today’s recipe! I’m stoked to be collaborating with Flatout Bread again in 2016.
I’ve loved being able to showcase the versatility of wraps and bread and proving that it’s not just a vehicle for sandwiches. What I love most about Flatout is that unlike most flatbreads on the market- You can actually load it with fillings and toppings and not be left searching around for a fork to eat it. They are sturdy, delicious and come in a range of flavors and styles.
You guys might remember when I ate Flatout wraps for an entire day. I followed that up by……doing it again. I then decided to go cray-cray and make breadcrumbs from it and turn them into No Bake Butterfinger bites. Today? I’m showing their versatility in what will be your new favorite snack- Healthy Baked Cinnamon Pita Chips!
Over the past few months, one of my ‘healthy’ snack choices were these pita chips. They came in a few flavors, but my favorite was hands down the cinnamon sugar one. This might be TMI but I’d…..like the cinnamon/sugar off being scoffing the crunchy chips. After polishing off over 25 a few packages of them, I realized I could just as easily make them myself.
Winning.
These healthy baked cinnamon pita chips literally take 15 minutes to whip up and are a texture lovers snack- Sweet, salty, crunchy and crispy all in one! Because of its thin style, you really don’t need any more than 10 minutes in the oven to bake them! Unlike traditional pita chips, these are baked and only use a dash of oil to avoid sticking and to give it a delicious, golden crunch! It’s also completely sugar-free because I used my favorite granulated sweetener, Norbu! I also took it up a notch by adding a scoop of vanilla protein powder to it to give it more staying power and aiding the sweet and salty texture!
HACK! Want an extra boost of protein? I made these with both the Flatout original AND the ProteinUP wraps which already boast a generous punch of protein- Both work great for this recipe!
Make these healthy baked cinnamon pita chips and give your taste buds a party- Healthy style.

These chips sound delicious! I’ve been really stuck on Greek yogurt with cocoa powder and sometimes coconut flour as a snack lately, though dry-roasted edamame and apples are high on the list too. I always tend to get on food jags in the winter.
I love dry roasted edamame- They are dangerous around me ha!
Uhm, those chips l look like they could be a real problem in my house…. yum 🙂
YES! Story of my life!
Homemade snacks for me! This is a great idea – I used to be obsessed with pita chips and want to try out those gf wraps 🙂
These are so good- Hopefully you can go off paleo for a day and enjoy some 😀
There are so many good restaurants in L.A. I would be eating out a lot if I were there and I love to cook!
Right? I’m full time in the kitchen but eat out more now ha!
My latest favorite snack is good piece chocolate 😉 Or some pieces, whatever. Great recipe, though. But I don`t completely understand the way eating it. What about quick recipe if salsa 😉
Hahahahaha these are so good without salsa!!!
A Pampers advertisement came up in your blog post today. My life is officially over.
Oh no! Haha, it must be a sign!
Chips are a fun way to switch it up! I especially like how easy these are! I prefer homemade snacks… but they just aren’t always there!
YES! You’d love these!
Being pregnant it’s so easy to eat the same things every day, that typically don’t include veggies! It takes some real effort some days lol. Homemade tortilla chips are my favorite. Way better than store bought!
Right? SO much better!
I hear you on the variety part. There have been weeks when I eat takeouts or eggs for every dinner and then there are weeks when I cook something fancy every night. I tend to crave the home cooked version, too. But then there is the lazy me protesting very loud!
If I had Whole Foods anywhere near me I’d need to divorce my husband and marry a millionair though 😉
oh man. We need to go to Whole Foods together. I’ll also ‘accidentally’ forget my wallet that particular day.
Its just like a chef having worked all day cooking at a restaurant – I’m sure the last thing he/she would want to do upon coming home is have to make yet another meal. As long as you continue to like your own creations I’d say this makes perfect sense (now I’m curious – DO you ever get sick of your own creations!?). I love flat out wraps – I couldn’t believe how sturdy they were the first time I tried them. And bigger than a regular wrap = alllll the stufffinnnggg.
Haha, now that I’m posting more consistently, I don’t really have a chance to get bored but I have standbys- Brownies and 3 ingredient rice crispy treats are always on rotation here!
Mmm your steak dinner looks perfect…
Love the pita chips! I have like 5 packs of flatout in my freezer so maybe I’ll take one out this weekend and make myself a snack. I have been a total failure in the snack department lately, so I’ve been relying on co-workers to feed me from their snack drawers when I get hungry mid-afternoon.
LOLOLOL. I’m laughing as that was me in Columbus.
YUMMY! These look really good. I should try these. I just need some flatouts. 🙂
They are delicious!
I am still loving your grain free English muffins, I remain fascinated at how the taste exactly like a regular one!
Right? I’m so glad I shared the recipe so many months ago, I’m shocked at how popular it’s been!
I used love those cinnamon sugar stacey pita chips and ate them by the handful until I ate too many and got sick of them, but that was like 5 years ago. I think i’m ready to hop back on that pita chip train again, with making my own like this of course!
YES! Silly Stacy. Making us fork out money to satisfy our cravings. NOT ANYMORE!
