Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cottage cheese (drained)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Optional seasonings: cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, dried herbs
- Cooking spray (optional)
Instructions
- Drain the Cottage Cheese: Use a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth to drain the excess liquid from the cottage cheese.
- Prepare the Mixture: In a bowl, combine the drained cottage cheese, olive oil, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and any other seasonings you prefer.
- Spread the Mixture: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the cottage cheese mixture evenly, ensuring it’s about 1/8-inch thick.
- Bake: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden and crispy.

Notes
- For a crispier texture, ensure the cottage cheese mixture is spread thinly on the baking sheet.
- You can fry the chips instead of baking them if you prefer a richer flavor.
- Feel free to experiment with seasonings like smoked paprika, Parmesan, or even a bit of lime zest for a refreshing twist.
