Choose lentil tortillas when protein from the chips themselves matters most: The Curators and M&S Food list 28g and 24.8g protein per 100g respectively, but their 85g and 90g packs are small for a group. For a larger sharing bowl, a 230g bag such as Doritos Dip or Load offers more chips and states 7–8 servings; make the accompanying dip or topping the protein-rich part of the bowl rather than relying on the chips.
If the chips need to contribute protein themselves, compare the nutrition panel rather than the pack-front description alone. The Curators and M&S Food list lentil tortilla products with 28g and 24.8g protein per 100g respectively, though both come in packs under 100g.
If you need chips for several people, start with the stated pack size and servings, then choose a suitable topping or dip. Waitrose lists the 230g Doritos Dip or Load bag as containing 7–8 servings; Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust identifies foods including pulses, tofu, eggs and dairy as protein-rich options.
Check the exact flavour and current pack before serving. The Curators product contains soya, M&S Food warns against its red-lentil tortillas for people with sesame or soya allergy, and the Doritos Dip or Load listing carries precautionary allergen statements.
Choose this route: When the chips themselves need to make a noticeable protein contribution, compare lentil tortilla products by their declared protein per 100g and per serving.
Bear in mind: The Curators 85g pack and M&S Food 90g pack offer less food for a group than a larger conventional sharing bag.
Choose this route: When serving several people matters more than protein from the chips, use a sharing bag and plan the protein-rich food separately.
Bear in mind: Waitrose lists Doritos Dip or Load at 6.5g protein per 100g, so its stated 7–8 servings do not make it a protein-led chip choice.
| Priority | What to check | Your needs |
|---|---|---|
| Protein contribution | Compare protein per 100g and per stated serving. Check pack size alongside those figures so a smaller, more concentrated product is not mistaken for a group-sized bag. | I want to know whether the chips contribute protein themselves or whether I am relying on the dip or toppings. |
| Amount to share | Check net weight, stated serving count and whether the chips are described as suitable for dipping or loading. Waitrose lists Doritos Dip or Load as a 230g bag with 7–8 servings. | There need to be enough chips for the people sharing the bowl, rather than just enough for a small snack. |
| Allergens and suitability | Read the current pack’s ingredients, allergen and precautionary statements for the exact flavour. Check any vegan, vegetarian or gluten-free wording on that product, not just its brand. | If I am serving someone with a dietary exclusion, I need to check the pack before putting the chips and toppings together. |
Waitrose lists the 230g Doritos Dip or Load bag at 6.5g protein per 100g. By contrast, ASDA and M&S Food list lentil tortillas with higher protein figures per 100g, but in much smaller 85g and 90g packs.
Decide whether you need protein from the chips or enough chips for a group. For a larger bowl, plan the accompanying protein-rich food separately.
Protein per 100g, protein per serving and total pack size answer different questions. ASDA lists The Curators tortillas at 28g protein per 100g, 10g per 35g serving and 24g per 85g pack.
Read those figures together with the serving size you intend to put in the bowl.
Statements differ between products and flavours. The Curators tortillas contain soya, while Waitrose lists possible milk, soya and wheat for Doritos Dip or Load.
Check the exact current pack, including both ‘contains’ and ‘may contain’ statements, before buying and serving it.
Its Classic BBQ Lentil Tortillas are an option to examine when protein from the chips matters more than a large sharing format.
The cited range includes a 90g red-lentil tortilla product and a separate 150g Cantina corn tortilla product, which serve different bowl plans.
Dip or Load Original Salted is a larger chip bag to consider when building a bowl with a separate topping or dip.
These options include bags for a larger bowl, smaller hummus and lentil chip packs, and individually packed portions. Compare their pack formats with the number of people you plan to serve; a lentil or hummus chip name alone does not establish its protein content.

Consider this 230g bag for a bowl with dips or toppings. Waitrose lists 7–8 servings and 6.5g protein per 100g for this product, so plan the protein-rich part of the bowl separately.

The 110g pack is a smaller option than a large sharing bag. If protein from the chips is the deciding factor, compare its current nutrition panel per 100g and per serving before choosing it.

This 180g bag is an option when planning a shared bowl with a separate dip or topping. Check the pack’s protein per serving and allergen statements for this flavour.

At 95g, this lentil chip pack is a smaller-bowl option. Check its declared protein per 100g and serving if you need the chips themselves to contribute protein, and compare the pack size with the number of people sharing.

Five separate 30g bags make it possible to set out individual portions. If you want one shared bowl instead, account for the individual-pack format and choose the accompanying food separately.
Pack size does not tell you its protein concentration. Waitrose lists Doritos Dip or Load at 6.5g protein per 100g, while M&S Food lists Cantina Tortilla Chips at 7.2g per 100g; compare those figures with the serving size you intend to put in the bowl.
Use the chips as the base and choose a separate topping or dip that fits your eating plan. Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust identifies foods including pulses, tofu, eggs and dairy as protein-rich; check the ingredients and portions of the complete bowl rather than judging it by the chips alone.
Yes. The cited product listings differ: The Curators Classic BBQ Lentil Tortillas contain soya, M&S Food’s red-lentil tortillas carry sesame and soya allergy warnings, and Waitrose lists possible milk, soya and wheat for Doritos Dip or Load. Check the current physical pack for the exact flavour before serving it.
