Look at the ingredient label of practically any bag of chips at the grocery store and you’ll find seed oils. Vegetable oils like sunflower oil are everywhere. If you’re looking to enjoy chips including potato chips and tortilla chips without seed oils, we’re here to help.
Jackson’s Sweet Potato Chips
Jackson’s has a great selection of flavors and offers varieties that include either avocado or coconut oil. Flavor options include habanero nacho, farmhouse ranch, sea salt, unsalted, and spicy salsa verde.
With such a short list of quality ingredients, you have to try these if you’re looking for a healthy potato chip option.
Ingredients (Avocado Sea Salt Variety): Sweet Potatoes, Avocado Oil, Sea Salt
Our Review:
There is no sacrificing taste with these healthy potato chips. We’ve tried the avocado oil sea salt option and absolutely enjoyed them. When I first saw these at the store, I was shocked to see just three ingredients. At that point, they were a must try. If you like sweet potatoes, you will absolutely love these.
Siete Grain Free Tortilla Chips
Siete offers several great tortilla chip options made with avocado oil and a variety of flavors including sea salt, no salt, lime, jalapeño lime, nacho, and fuego.
One thing to love when looking at Siete chips is that they intentionally show off their ingredients by making the ingredients label much larger than it needs to be.
Ingredients (Sea Salt Variety): Cassava Blend (Cassava Flour, Cassava Starch), Avocado Oil, Coconut Flour, Chia Seed, Sea Salt
Our Review:
We’ve tried the sea salt, lime, and jalapeño lime varieties. We enjoyed all three, but jalapeño lime was easily my favorite flavor. It does have some nice kick but not overwhelming. Sea salt was a great basic tortilla chip that is perfect for pairing with salsa or guac. While the lime variety was good, the lime flavor is a bit stronger than ideal. We really enjoy these tortilla chips and they’ll be in our pantry often.
Siete Grain Free Cinnamon Chips – Churro Strips
Siete also offers a less traditional but incredibly fun chip option with their Churro Strips. Made with avocado oil and coconut sugar, Siete has created a tasty, healthier option when you’re craving something sweet.
Ingredients: Cassava Blend (Cassava Flour, Cassava Starch), Avocado Oil, Coconut Sugar, Agave Syrup, Pumpkin Powder, Cinnamon, Psyllium Husk Powder, Sea Salt, Vanilla Powder
Our Review:
These are completely addictive. A plus for me is that I love churros but rarely have the opportunity to have one. These provide a fun, easy way to get that fix with less guilt due to the quality ingredients they use. If we have a bag around the house, they don’t last long. Because of this, we get them as an occasional treat because having them around at all times would be too tempting.

Made with American grown potatoes, thickly sliced, and kettle cooked in small batches, these are a great option to fulfill your potato chip cravings.
