The other day we were wondering how to use up our last few whole wheat pita loaves, which had become quite dry. Since we love to snack on pita chips, we decided that would be a good use of our stale pitas.
We simply cut the pita into triangles, sprayed them with spray olive oil, and sprinkled some coarse sea salt on top. We baked them in our toaster oven and voilà — delicious and healthful, homemade pita chips that were not too oily or too salty. They were just right!
We see no reason to buy packaged pita chips again.
