I love a good salty snack. Some of my favorites include chips and salsa , chips and guacamole , soft pretzels , and pita chips with hummus.

Store bought pita chips are fine, but homemade pita chips are the BEST! If you haven’t made them at home, you are missing out. You only need three ingredients and they are super simple to make.

These pita chips are baked and not fried. You can make a big tray of chips at once! The chips are thick, crunchy, and salty. Serve with hummus , spinach artichoke dip , whipped feta , whipped cottage cheese , or your favorite dips! They are also great with salads or plain!
