Cheese Mixture
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Optional: additional spices like paprika or chili powder for extra flavor
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for baking the chips.
- Mix the Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, shredded cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until the mixture is uniform and well combined.
- Form the Chips: Drop tablespoon-sized amounts of the cheese mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Space each mound about an inch apart. Using the back of a spoon, gently flatten each mound into a thin, even layer to create chip shapes.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges of the chips turn golden brown and become crispy.
- Cool and Enjoy: Remove the chips from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes to firm up. Serve crispy cottage cheese chips alone or with your favorite dips.
Notes
- For extra flavor, try adding spices like paprika or chili powder to the mixture before baking.
- Ensure the chips are flattened evenly for uniform cooking and crispiness.
- Store leftover chips in an airtight container to maintain their crisp texture.
