What kind of pasta is best for these protein pasta chips?

Chickpea cavatappi pasta is recommended for its protein content and shape, but you can use your choice of pasta for this recipe.

Can I bake these pasta chips instead of air frying them?

What are some good dipping sauces for these vegan pasta chips?

The recipe suggests serving these crispy pasta chips with optional pizza sauce, marinara sauce, or ranch dressing for dipping.

How do I ensure my pasta chips get perfectly crispy?

To achieve crispiness, air fry the seasoned pasta in a single layer, doing batches if necessary, and flip them halfway through the 7 to 10 minute cooking time.

Can I make these pasta chips gluten-free?

Since the recipe calls for chickpea cavatappi pasta, which is typically gluten-free, these chips would naturally be gluten-free if you use a certified gluten-free brand.
