Ingredients:

2 cups cooked pasta (any shape)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 3-5 minutes.
Prepare the Pasta: In a large bowl, toss the cooked pasta with olive oil until evenly coated.
Seasoning: Sprinkle garlic powder, Italian seasoning, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper over the pasta. Toss well to ensure the seasoning coats the pasta evenly.
Air Frying: Transfer the seasoned pasta to the air fryer basket, spreading it out in a single layer. Be sure not to overcrowd the basket.
Cooking: Air fry the pasta chips at 375°F (190°C) for 6-8 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking to ensure even crisping. Keep an eye on them towards the end to prevent burning.
Serve: Once the pasta chips are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the air fryer and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy them as a snack on their own or as a delightful topping for salads and soups.

Tips:

Experiment with different seasonings to customize the flavor of your pasta chips. Try adding chili powder for a spicy kick or smoked paprika for a smoky flavor.
Make sure the cooked pasta is well-drained before tossing it with olive oil to prevent excess oil in the air fryer.
Store any leftover pasta chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat them in the air fryer for a few minutes to restore their crispiness before serving.
