Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, toss the cooked pasta with olive oil, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Spread the pasta in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure the pieces are not overlapping to ensure they get crispy.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping the pasta halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
Let the pasta chips cool slightly before serving with your favorite dip.
Variations & Tips
Feel free to get creative with the seasonings! Try using smoked paprika for a smoky flavor, or a pinch of chili powder for some heat. You could also make a cheesy version by tossing the pasta with some shredded cheddar before baking. For a healthier twist, use whole grain or chickpea pasta. If you’re in a hurry, an air fryer can also be used – just reduce the cooking time to 8-10 minutes.
