Low Fat Curried Pita Chips Recipes

LOW-FAT PITA CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• With scissors, cut pitas around the outside into 2 rounds each.
• Whisk together egg white and olive oil.
• Brush this onto the insides of the four pita rounds.
• Season however you want.
• I've used garlic powder, cajun seasoning, greek seasoning, cayenne pepper, curry powder- all delicious.
• Stack the rounds and cut them into 8 triangles.
• Spread in single layer onto baking sheet, seasoned side up, and bake for about 15 minutes, making sure they are no longer soft, but not too brown.
• Store (I've never gotten around to this part) in an air-tight container or bag.
• Mmmmmm, guilt-free snacking.

Steps:

• Arrange chips in a single layer on the baking sheet and lightly spray with cooking spray.
• I usually need two baking sheets to fit all the chips in one single layer.
• Sprinkle each tray with half of either the cumin, garlic powder, OR onion powder, depending on your preference.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Bake until chips are crisp, about 10-15 minutes.
• The pita chips can be made ahead and stored in an airtight container for several days.

• Add water, stir, and let simmer until the turkey absorbs all the water, about 5 minutes.
• Spread each pita w/ about 1/4 cup sauce. Sprinkle w/ minced onion, sliced mushrooms, black olives, or any veggie you like. Sprinkle w/ cooked turkey, then top w/ an even layer of shredded cheese.
• Cook for about 10 minutes until heated through and cheese is bubbly and brown. (Start checking at about 5 minutes just to make sure you don't overcook-depends on the amount of toppings and cheese you use and your oven.).
