A Banana

Line a baking sheet with either a silicone mat or a piece of parchment paper.
Preheat the oven at 250F and position a rack in the middle.
Slice the bananas in 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick and place them on the baking sheet. Let the banana slices dry in the oven for 2 hours. Let cool. Chop in small pieces.

I suppose you could do this with any fruit. I suppose you could add a bit of granola to it, or a bit of brown sugar.

South Beach Popcorn

This is a simple substitution for popcorn, with very little carbs!

Okra
Spices
Olive oil

Don't worry - it is NOT slimy when we get done with it. Use your favorite spices. Mrs. Dash, Spike, Lemon Pepper, or even cheesy popcorn salt!

Slice the okra into 1/4 inch slices. You can buy the already-sliced frozen ones too.

Put the oven to 200 degrees. Put the okra on a foil-lined baking sheet, drizzle a little oil on them, i fyou have an oil spritzer, that would be better. Cook for 8 hours (9 if you started with frozen).

Sprinkle spices on, enjoy!

1/2 cup has about 4 carbs, 2 of which are fiber, so they don't count.

Trust me, this is also a cure for constipation, just eat more than one serving, and you'll be cleared up in no time...

My kids also love these.
