Pita Chips!















These guys are probably my favorite snack food right now. Easy as pie to make and way more cost effective than the kind that come pre-bagged. These are great on their own or with dip, and can easily be modified however you choose.

Recipe:
1 Package of pita (I like whole wheat best)
Olive Oil
Salt
Pepper

Directions
1) Preheat the broiler on your oven
2) Open the pita pockets and rip at the back seam so that you have a single layer of pita.
3) Cut each half pita into quarters (so each full pita will make 8 chips)
4) Arrange the pita pieces on a baking sheet. Brush each with olive oil and sprinkle salt and pepper on each.
5) Put the pan of pita pieces in the oven (under the broiler) for about 2 1/2 minutes. Make sure to check every 30 seconds or so because these burn quickly, and the broiling time can be very different, depending on the heat of your oven.

I think that these would be very nice with cinnamon and sugar, or with some parmesan cheese added. The sky is the limit!

Until our next dinner,
ceh.
