Spicy Baked Pita Chips

 I used to think I hated hummus. It's gritty. It's goupy. It's a weird brownish-beige color. It's made out of something foreign called chick peas. Hummus was not my thing.


Then I finally actually tried it. And, what do you know, loved it. Especially with delicious food to dip in it.

In honor of how awesome hummus is, I made some baked pita chips to accompany it. Because store bought just doesn't cut it these days.

Spicy Baked Pita Chips
Ingredients:
12 pitas (white or whole wheat)
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp garlic pepper
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp parsley
1/4 tsp thyme
pinch of seasoning salt
fresh chives

Directions: preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut pitas into triangles. Mix olive oil and spices together, then brush over pitas. Try to cover every surface, but don't overdo it. They should be covered, not soaked. Put them on a pan and pop them in the oven for about 7 minutes or until they start to brown. They will burn fast, so keep an eye on them.
