PROTEIN CHIPS - crunchy chips made from 46% lentil, with plant-based protein and fibre.
PROTEIN CHIPS from Genius Nutrition® do not start from potato but from 46% finely milled lentil - the base that brings the protein and the fibre. The result is a balanced, crunchy snack with 15.4-15.5g protein per 100g and a noticeably lower fat content than classic potato chips. Two flavours: Smoked Ham 65g and Sour Cream & Onion 75g.
Lentil chips vs. potato chips - the difference starts with the first ingredient
A classic potato chip is, in essence, starch and oil. It has taste and texture, but the protein contribution is small and the amount of fat is considerable: fried potato chips frequently reach around 30g of fat per 100g.
PROTEIN CHIPS start from a different base. Finely milled lentil makes up 46% of the product and is the first ingredient on the list, completed by corn flour and rice flour. Lentil is a legume dense in protein and fibre, and its presence at this proportion changes the nutritional profile directly: 15.4-15.5g protein per 100g, meaning up to 11.6g in a single pack.
Fat comes to 16.4-16.8g per 100g, with saturates at only 1.8-1.9g. Sugars are low: 1.6g per 100g in the Smoked Ham version. The result is not a diet food but a balanced snack - a chip that offers more than starch and oil, while keeping the crunch and the taste.

What PROTEIN CHIPS do for you
Lentil plus cereals: the classic complementary protein pairing
Proteins from legumes and proteins from cereals have different and, usefully, complementary amino acid profiles. Legumes such as lentil are rich in lysine but lower in sulphur-containing amino acids, particularly methionine. Cereals - here corn flour and rice flour - have the reverse situation: a good supply of methionine but a lower lysine content. Combined in the same food, the two sources complement each other and the overall amino acid profile becomes better balanced than either source taken on its own. This is the principle behind traditional food combinations across the world, from rice and beans to hummus and bread, and it is exactly the structure of the base of these chips: 46% lentil alongside corn flour and rice flour.
Who benefits from PROTEIN CHIPS?
A crunchy snack with a protein contribution, for the moments when you fancy chips and want something with more than starch and oil.
People who train and want to increase their daily protein intake without giving up a crunchy snack - up to 11.6g of protein in a single pack.
Those who prefer a plant base from legumes rather than potato, and want a chip in which lentil is the first ingredient rather than an addition.
People with busy schedules who need a quick snack at the office or while travelling, ready to eat, with no preparation and no refrigeration.
Those who read labels and want to know exactly what they are eating - all the nutrition values and the complete ingredient lists for both flavours are published below.
