For best results

• For extra crunch, use full-fat cottage cheese and pat it dry with a paper towel before mixing.
• Make sure to flatten the mounds thinly; thicker chips will be chewy instead of crispy.
• Experiment with seasonings like smoked paprika, onion powder, or Italian seasoning.

Variations

• Spicy: Add 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
• Everything Bagel: Sprinkle with everything bagel seasoning before baking.
• Cheesy Herb: Use 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella and 1 tsp dried basil.
