Notes
- I used bowtie pasta, but feel free to use any shape you like! Just make sure to cook the pasta to al dente following the instructions on the box.
- I opted for an olive oil spray but any kind of cooking spray will work-- just making sure you’re using a cooking oil spray, not a non-stick baking spray.
- Kosher salt is going to make the chips salty and delicious!
- Parmesan cheese is what makes these chips garlic parmesan flavored. For a dairy-free option, feel free to swap nutritional yeast or a dairy-free parmesan substitute.
- Garlic powder is great in this recipe because it coats the pasta evenly-- I don’t recommend using fresh garlic as it can be overpowering.
