Oven-Fried Salt & Vinegar Potato Chips

If I had to name my favorite snack in the whole entire world it would be salt & vinegar potato chips!  Crispy potatoes, tangy vinegar and salty... well salt!  LOTS of SALT!  

I have dabbled in home-made chips over the years but have never tackled these salt & vinegar lovelies til now and not to toot my own horn... but TOOT TOOT... this guys are good.  The white vinegar is just the right amount to give each chip some tang without overpowering your taste buds.  Make them for a crowd... or just for you!!

Wonton Pizza Crisps

Yesterday I was looking for a quick and easy snack.  I wasn't craving vegetables or hummus. I didn't want something sweet.  I wanted PIZZA.  Not the healthiest snack choice, I know, but everything in moderation, am I right?

Well I knew I wasn't hungry enough for an actual pizza pie but I still needed to get my pepperoni and cheesy fix.  That's when I spotted some leftover wonton wrappers in the fridge.  BINGO!!  Wonton Pizza Crisps. 

Wonton wrappers are awesome.  You can use them to make wontons (of course), raviolis, pierogies, mini-lasagnas, chips and crusts.  You can steam them, fry them, boil them and bake them.  What can't wonton wrappers do?

The wonton wrappers make a perfect "thin crust" for this pizza snack. I mixed the shredded mozzarella with some Italian seasoning to heighten the pizza flavor.  AND... who can have pizza without pepperoni??  Not me!  I ended up with crispy, melty and spicy bites that satisfied my pizza cravings.

WONTON PIZZA CRISPS

• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese 
• 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1. Preheat oven to 375ºF.
2. Coat a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray. Arrange wonton wrappers on sheet, making sure the wrappers don't touch. Spray wonton wrappers with a coating of non-sticking cooking spray.
3. In a small bowl, combine cheese and seasoning.  Sprinkle cheese over the wonton wrappers.  Place pepperoni slices on each wrapper.  Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until wontons are crispy and cheese is melted and golden.  Remove from oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool.  Enjoy!
