Potato chips are as close to a perfect snack as it gets. They are delicious, you can eat tons of them without even noticing, and they pair up well with any activity. However, they do have one major downside—they are not exactly good for you. This is especially the case if you are on a diet or trying to eat healthily.
Well, worry not. TikTok user @amalawadfit recently shared a healthy substitute for potato chips that will satisfy your “salty cravings” without all the grease and calories. Her creation “lettuce chips” has taken the internet by storm and made social media users wonder how they didn’t think of it before.
In order to make lettuce chips, you need to break down lettuce into smaller chunks and toss them into a bowl. Then, sprinkle them with some lemon juice or vinegar (or both if you’re feeling adventurous) and salt and pepper. The final step is to give it a thorough mix and dig in.

Many people who have tried lettuce chips claim that they are almost as good as potato chips. Some even recommend taking them up a notch by adding other ingredients like grated cheese or different seasonings like chili flakes and ranch.
So next time you find yourself reaching out for a bag of potato chips, maybe consider giving lettuce chips a try.
