Low Fat Pita Chips
"These are delicious, and very low in fat! I've served these with all sorts of dips, salsas, or hummus, and they always disappear-even before all the store bought chips or crackers. Feel free to experiment with the different spices shaken over the tops. Cumin is great for Mexican dips, but the Garlic Powder works really well too. Cayene pepper might be nice too if you like things a bit more spicy!"

What a treat! I sprinkled cinnamon and sugar over the top. Not as healthy but delicious and great for a comfort food. -
These are so delicious and easy! I made them with just salt... I like something simple to go with my homemade hummus. :) Thank you for posting the recipe! -
Perfection! I've had difficulty with chips getting too hard in the past, but this baking temperature and time is right on. I used coarse salt and freshly cracked pepper - they are awesome. Thanks! -
Perfect! I used coarse sea salt & garlic powder. My cookie sheet held 2 pitas. You will need at least 2 sheets if you make the full recipe. Very tasty... I like these much better than Stacy's Pita Chips. Thank you! -
I used sugar & cinnamon and it is a great fat-free snack. Thank you!
