Pesto Pasta Chips
Who would have thought, PASTA CHIPS could be a viral snack that everyone has to try at least once!? I couldn’t have guessed it either. To be honest, I was so skeptical about these. Last year these Pasta Chips ran rampant on TikTok and I had to test out the recipe … mostly so I could let you know if they are worth the hype or not. But also because I was curious! Turns out, they are crisp and flavorful. Which is exactly what you want when craving a snack. BUT are they worth it?!
My girls loved them more than me. I added pesto and Parmesan to make them extra flavorful. I say these are perfect for a family gathering or game day snack! Take a look and let me know if you’ll give them a try! :) Watch my quick How To video below to see the Pasta Chips in action and to hear just how crunchy they get!
