Cottage Cheese Chips

 

– light, crispy chips made from baked cottage cheese, perfect for a high-protein, low-carb snack.

Ingredients:

- 1 cup cottage cheese (small curds, drained)

- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder

- ¼ teaspoon onion powder

- ½ teaspoon dried herbs (optional, like thyme or parsley)

- Salt and pepper (to taste)

- Olive oil spray (for baking)

Directions:

1. Preheat the Oven:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray it with olive oil.

2. Prepare the Cottage Cheese:

Drain the cottage cheese well to remove excess moisture. In a bowl, mix the cottage cheese with garlic powder, onion powder, dried herbs (if using), salt, and pepper.

3. Form the Chips:

Using a tablespoon, scoop small mounds of the seasoned cottage cheese onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each mound slightly with the back of a spoon to form thin rounds.

4. Bake:

Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chips turn golden-brown and crispy around the edges. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.

5. Cool and Serve:

Let the chips cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes to crisp up further. Serve these crunchy cottage cheese chips as a snack or alongside your favorite dip!
