Recipe Steps

Ingredients:

•1 cup dill pickle slices (patted dry)

•1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Parmesan)

•Optional: ½ tsp garlic powder or paprika

Directions:

1.Preheat the Oven:

•Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

2.Prepare the Pickles and Cheese:

•Pat the pickle slices dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.

3.Assemble the Chips:

•Place small mounds of shredded cheese on the prepared baking sheet, about 2 inches apart. Top each cheese mound with a pickle slice, then sprinkle a bit more cheese on top.

4.Bake to Perfection:

•Bake in the preheated oven for 8-12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

5.Cool and Crisp:

•Remove from the oven and let the chips cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. They will crisp up as they cool.

6.Serve:

•Serve immediately as a snack or appetizer, or pair them with your favorite dip.

Storage Options

•Refrigerator: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer for a few minutes to crisp them back up.

Variations & Substitutions

•Spicy Chips: Sprinkle cayenne pepper or crushed red pepper flakes on the cheese for a spicy kick.

•Ranch Flavored: Add ranch seasoning to the cheese for a tangy twist.

•Pickle-Free Option: Make the chips with just cheese for a keto-friendly snack.
