Ingredients
  • ⅛ cup olive oil
  • 2 large garlic cloves
  • ½ tsp oregano

  • ¼ tsp onion powder
  • 2-4 6" or 8" pitas
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
  • Parmesan or Nutritional Yeast (optional)
Instructions
  1. Pre-heat oven to 400
  2. Cut pitas into 6 wedges each
  3. Open wedges and split along outer edge
  4. Chop or press garlic directly into olive oil
  5. Add oregano, basil, onion, salt, and pepper to oil and mix well
  6. Lightly brush wedges with oil mixture, being careful not to leave large pockets of oil
  7. (optional) Lightly sprinkle wedges with parmesan
  8. Bake for 4-6 minutes or until edges begin to brown
  9. Let rest for a few minutes to allow chips to crisp up
  10. Pat dry any excess oil and enjoy!
Notes
For a thicker, softer chip, skip step 3.
For more precise seasoning, halve spices and set aside, coating the pita and sprinkling on afterwards to taste.
For a lower fat option, replace oil entirely with light coating of cooking spray to ensure spices stick.
Nutritional information wasn't included for this as it will vary quite a bit both from the brand of pita and from the level of oil applied in each case.
