The whole family loved these -- from the 2 yr old to the 60 yr old. SO simple yet so flavorful. I was surprised the 2 yr old went for the spices but she dug in. Crisp and spicy, a perfect dipper for hummus! I also used whole wheat pitas and they were perfect. Thank you for this healthy snack!

We used 100% whole wheat pita bread- very tasty. My toddlers didn't like it with the spices- but it left more for my husband and I. :) We dipped them in pasta sauce. A good healthy treat. Yum!

These chips were great I took them to a party with dip and my firends just love them! Everytime I go out with them they always tell me to "make those awesome pita chips." They are very fast and easy to make.
