Product Overview
Tia Lupita Sea Salt Cactus Chips are the perfect alternative to regular tortilla chips. Using cactus to make tortilla chips may sound a bit crazy, but this innovative ingredient has many benefits! The Nopal Cactus, also known as the Prickly Pear Cactus, has been growing in popularity as an ingredient with a range of uses. For this innovative snack, Tia Lupita makes the Nopales Cactus into flour, blended with other upcycled ingredients like Okara to form each chip. The cactus is a sustainable plant due to its ability to thrive in arid climates and is better for you as it is high in fiber and grain-free, making them perfect for a healthier choice. This combined with Okara, another fibrous ingredient, gives each serving 4g of dietary fiber. This classic flavor never fails to hit the spot, the crunchy texture and salty taste make a combination no one can refuse! It pairs perfectly with a range of Mexican cuisine; with dips like guacamole or salsa, paired with chili as a main, or even just straight from the bag.
Ingredients
Blend of Cassava Flour and Nopales Cactus, Sunflower or Safflower Oil, Coconut Flour, Chia Seeds, Sea Salt. Allergens: Contains Tree Nuts (Coconut).
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Okara?
Okara is the fibrous by-product of soybeans and it usually goes to waste in soy milk production. But why waste it? In Tia Lupita Cactus Chips, Okara is upcycled to form Cassava flour. Upcycling this waste product reduces ongoing food waste and makes a more sustainable and delicious chip without losing any of the texture. Perfect for us to enjoy, perfect for the planet to be happy.
