Polenta Chips from @NotAMeanGirl

2 cups hot water
2 tsp Better Than Bullion Chicken Flavor (Found on soups aisle)
black pepper
onion
cayenne pepper
1/2 c corn meal

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Mix hot water, Better Than Bullion,
cayenne pepper, black pepper and onion. (use peppers and onion to taste in microwave safe bowl.(Mine was quite spicy but we like it that way)  Add corn meal.  Whisk.  Microwave on high 2 minutes.  Whisk well.  Microwave 3 minutes.  Whisk again.  pour in cookie sheet that has been sprayed with nonstick spray.  Spread quickly and evenly. (mixture gets sticky as it cools.  Try not to work with it too much) This will coat the bottom of the cookie sheet thinly.  Bake for 30 minutes.  DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN AFTER THE 30 MINUTES ARE UP. Turn off oven at 30 minute mark.  Leave in oven for 90 additional minutes.  (It
sounds nuts but it works great!)

Break into chips once 90 additional minutes in oven pass.

This is great with salsa, fresh guac or hummas!

    You can season them a lot of different ways. A lil chili powder and cumin for a mexican flava or leave out the chicken flavoring and the peppers… put some sweetner and cinnamon or chocolate and you have a sweet treat :)

    I made these last night, and seasoned them up with everything that @NotAMeanGirl included in the recipe and made an addition of throwing in some of that powdered parmesan cheese you can buy in the plastic cannister in the stores and let me tell you that they were super yummy! A very satisfying snack, especially when they’re still kind of warm.

    Thanks for sharing the recipe!
