To take [snacks eaten with hummus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/functional-hummus), vegetable salsa or fresh guacamole to the next level of nutrition, Supereats decided to make [tortilla chips healthy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/island-time-chips) again. While this has been attempted in the past with whole wheat and corn-based tortillas, this line from Supereats goes above and beyond with superfoods like beans, kale and [chia seeds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plantchi).

While all of the nutrient-dense 'Kale + Chia' chips feature a distinctive green coloring, they come in a variety of flavors like Sea Salt, Cheddar and Ranch.

The non-GMO, vegan and gluten-free snacks are loaded with antioxidants, fiber, protein, as well as contribute to nearly the full daily value requirements of Vitamin A and Vitamin C. Whether these alternative chips are eaten on their own or consumed with a dip, this is a far healthier choice in comparison to other comforting snacks.
