Crispy Lavash Squares

http://www.hungry-girl.com/show/surprises-shockers-and-swaps-crispy-lavash-squares-with-hg-hot-couple-dip-recipe

This recipe is a great substitute for chips and salsa!!  Invite some of your girlfriends over that like you, try to watch what they eat, and they'll love it!  I did have a little trouble finding the lavash flatbread, but in looking for it, I found that a lot of middle-eastern restaurants will sell it to you, kind of like a lot of pizza places will sell you their dough.  I actually found it at BJ's of all places, and it was very inexpensive!  It was called Joseph's Flax, Oat Bran & Whole Wheat Flour Lavash Bread, and there were 8 huge squares in the package for $3.69, less than you could probably buy a bag of chips!  You can also use the flatbread as a pizza base, just add your favorite sauce and toppings.  Or, as a huge wrap.  An entire flatbread is only 1pp!!!  They are also very high in nutritional value.

You'll have to use a lot of trial and error to see how long your oven will take to bake the squares.  I started and 2 minutes, and went all the way up to 4 minutes before I found the perfect cooking time, again, for my oven, to be 2 minutes and 45 seconds.  For the sauce, once you add the greek yogurt to the salsa, you will never know that it isn't sour cream.

As you can tell, I'm super excited to share this snack recipe.  It is definitely a must try!
