Baked Pita Chips

2 or more packages of Pita Bread (try to get the ones without the pocket)

EVOO (extra virgin olive oil)

Sea Salt

Dried herbs like Basil, parsley, garlic (optional)


Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Cut pita/flat bread into chip size triangle pieces, like a pizza.
Pour some EVOO onto a foil lined baking sheet.
Put cut pita pieces onto baking sheet; spread and stir around in EVOO until both sides are evenly coated.
Place each pita triangle flat onto baking sheet, trying not to stack pieces.
Sprinkle desired amount of Sea Salt, herbs & garlic (dried) on top of pita.
Bake @ 400 deg F for about 10 min, or until golden brown. If you like a crispier chip, go a bit longer. If you desire a softer chip, bake for a bit less time.

Goes great with hummus of every flavor, homemade dips, and/or Tayana's Gorgonzola (or blue cheese) Dip recipe. We also like to serve these pitas (& dip) with fresh veggies & greek pitted green olives w/ garlic (I got mine at olive cart near deli at Safeway). I found the Kontos Nan flat bread and other types of Pita Bread in bakery area near hamburger buns in Safeway.
