Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup low-fat cottage cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded vegetarian cheese
  • olive oil spray or butter
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 tsp paprika or chili flakes
  • 1/2 tsp dried herbs (oregano, parsley, or thyme)
  • 1 tbsp nutritional yeast

  • Instructions

    1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

    2. Drain excess liquid from the cottage cheese using a fine mesh strainer or paper towel.

    3. In a bowl, combine drained cottage cheese, shredded vegetarian cheese, salt, pepper, paprika, herbs, and nutritional yeast.

    4. Drop tablespoon-sized rounds of the mixture onto the prepared tray, spacing them about 1 inch apart, and flatten slightly with the back of the spoon.

    6. Allow the chips to cool on the tray for 10 minutes to firm up before removing.

    8. Store cooled chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days and reheat briefly to restore crispness.
