Try these whole-grain pita chips to see how easy and delicious healthy eating can be. They take only minutes to prepare. They’re suitable for a healthy snack or meal, and tasty and satisfying enough to serve at parties.

Making homemade pita chips gives you the chance to use your favorite spices and herbs in whatever combinations you like. Plus, you can select wholesome ingredients like whole grains and olive oil instead of more processed refined grains and saturated fats like butter or palm oil.

Recipe for Whole-Grain Pita Chips

Makes 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 whole-grain pita pockets (3 ounces each)
  • 1 ½ tablespoons of olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon of garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon of onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon of sea salt
  • Black pepper to taste
  • (Optional) dried spices or herbs such as thyme, rosemary, oregano, cumin, basil, paprika

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper, or spray with cooking spray.
  2. Cut each pita pocket into 6-12 wedges and separate the layers for thinner chips.
  3. In a medium bowl, toss the pita wedges with olive oil, and other ingredients until evenly coated.
