Oh that's great then. You know you can make them healthy. Like make pico de gallo sauce at home and eat with your chips very delicious, fresh, and healthy. Now I'm not sure what's the exact method of the sun chips but i'm sure they were also fried lolz. But to me they taste much less oily then like lays or like ruffles. I guess that's my excuse lolz. But I don't even remember the last time I had them. So it's kind of good to avoid it all together but it's definitely not easy to do!

Healthy Veggie Burger

Ingredients:

1. 1 can of garbanzo bean drained and mashed nicely

2. 1 cup cooked brown rice

3. 1/4 cup of oat bran

4. 1/4 quick cooking oats

5. Package of tofu

6. Fresh Basil

7. Salt, black pepper, and Garlic powder

8. Vegetable oil

Method:

1. In a large bowl, stir together the mashed garbanzo beans and basil. Mix in the oat bran, quick oats, and rice; the mixture should seem a little dry.(You can mix it in a blender)
   
2. In a separate bowl, mash the tofu with your hands, trying to squeeze out as much of the water as possible. Drain the water, and repeat the process until there is hardly any water worth pouring off. It is not necessary to remove all of the water.
   
3. Stir the tofu into the garbanzo beans and oats. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and sage; mix until well blended.
   
4. Drizzle little bit of oil on the griddle over medium-high heat. Form patties out of the bean mixture(put it in the fridge for about 15 minutes so they get a little firm), and heat them in hot oil for about 5 minutes per side. Serve as you would with any burgers
   

P.S you can add any veggies you want but just make sure it's sliced very thinly because you want it to cook properly and and not bulge out of the burger. Make sure the tofu is firm otherwise the burgers will fall apart. I suggest adding pancko or bread crumbs to help them stick together.

You can put shredded carrots,diced mushrooms, bell pepper and corn. Very delicious with those ingredients.

Add italian seasoning for extra flavor.

If your adding additional veggies saute them a little bit first(like mushrooms and bell peppers).

You can leave out of the tofu if you don't like it.

Enjoy!

P.S You can make the soup without the cheese to be on the healthy side. But a little bit of cheese doesn't hurt.

Add carrots in it also towards the end if you like it tastes really good.

You can avoid the heavy cream but all it does is thickens the soup.
