Ingredients
1 cup cottage cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
2 tablespoons ranch or dipping sauce, optional
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a small bowl, mix the Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt.
3. Spoon small mounds of cottage cheese onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each one.
4. Flatten each mound slightly with the back of a spoon.
5. Sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over each mound.
6. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until the chips are deep golden with crisp edges.
7. Let the chips cool on the pan for 5 to 10 minutes so they firm up.
8. Top with chopped parsley and serve with dipping sauce if desired.
Notes
Use full-fat cottage cheese for the best crisp texture and richest flavor.
Make the chips small and evenly sized so they bake at the same rate.
Let them cool on the pan before moving them, because they crisp up more as they rest.
