New York Style Bagel Crisps

Snacking is fun, but snacks full of fat and cholesterol are not fun in the least. New York Style Bagel Crisps are a tasty snack that I do not have to feel guilty about. Many times when I buy a “good-for-you” snack, they have little to no flavor. There are so many options for snacking, but when I am in the mood for something crispy, crunchy and satisfying, I think of New York Style Bagel Crisps.

Since these are baked and not fried, I don’t have to feel guilty about snacking on something greasy and fried (blech). I have found several fresh and fun ways to use New York Style Bagel Crisps when I prepare summer snacks. To keep things light, I love to use light cream cheese, and then top with cucumbers, finely chopped green onions, or sometimes I will make a spread with the cream cheese. I like to add just a couple of drops of soy sauce, minced garlic and sesame seeds. Put a small dollop on top of each bagel crisp and voila – and you have an easy and healthy summer snack!

I had fun trying the varieties that I received – previously I had only tried the plain Bagel Crisps (which are very good!).  The New York Style BBQ Mini Bagel Crisps are amazing.  They are full of BBQ zesty goodness, and my whole family loved these.  We dipped a few of these in a cool ranch dip and oh boy, were they tasty!  Next I want to try them with a thin slice of cheddar cheese – kind of like a BBQ Cheeseburger!

The Roasted Garlic Bagel Crisps are probably my favorite – I love anything and everything garlic. These had just the right amount of garlic flavor, without being “too much”.  I think these would make a great appetizer alone, or even topped with a garlic dip for those who can’t get enough garlic.  Of course, they could also be served with a Garlic Jack Cheese for even more amazing flavor!

No matter which variety of New York Style Bagel Crisps I have tried, they are always fresh and perfect for snacking.  Although these are extra tasty with a spread, cheese or other toppings, I love the ease of just grabbing a bag and snacking on them right out of the bag.  They are that flavorful! With so many flavors to choose from, I don’t think I’ll ever get bored. I can’t wait to try each and every flavor.
