Revision of an old snack

One of my most favorite snacks is hummus and Stacy's Simply Naked Pita Chips. I chose WW because you don't necessarily have to give up anything but knowing all foods have a point value you do start to think twice before eating something. Don't get me wrong here hummus and pita chips is definitely not an "unhealthy" snack in any way but 10 chips and 1/4 a cup of hummus is 5 points. Hmm, now I have a question to ask myself, do I want to have 5 points or can I find a way to enjoy a similar snack using less of my daily points!?! After some thought I came up with this figure friendly, satisfying 2 point snack.

Cucumber "Chips" and Hummus

Clean and peel a cucumber. Slice up cucumber into the size of poker chips. Mix cucumber chips in a bowl with some sea salt. Scoop out 1/4 cup of hummus into another bowl. Dip your cucumber chips into your hummus while pretending you are still having pita chips and watching Jersey Shore, hah:)

Enjoy!
