  • Place the pita pieces on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Mix the olive oil and the booster and with a brush spread the mixture on one side of the pita.
  • Bake the pita chips for about 10 minutes, or until golden and slightly crispy.
  • Serve with the white bean dip and enjoy.

Portion a handful of pita chips and a large spoonful of dip in a to-go container for a healthy mid-afternoon snack.
