WHOLE-WHEAT PITA CHIPS WITH MASCARPONE-CHIVE DIP
This was made on Giada DeLaurentiis small bite show in 2009 and it wasn't on Food.com so posting it for safe keeping and for easy access to make it for this year's Super Bowl Game. Best if the dip/sauce is made a day or 2 in advance to allow the flavors to blend. I added garlic and onion powders to the dip and also add more bacon then her original recipe.

Tips:
- To make the perfect pita chips, use whole wheat pita bread that is at least a day old. This will help the chips to be crispy and flavorful.
- Cut the pita bread into even wedges so that they cook evenly.
- Brush the pita wedges with olive oil and sprinkle with salt before baking. This will help them to brown and crisp up.
- Bake the pita chips at a high temperature (400 degrees Fahrenheit) for a short amount of time (8-10 minutes). This will help them to get crispy without burning.
- Let the pita chips cool completely before serving. This will help them to crisp up even more.
- For the mascarpone chive dip, use full-fat mascarpone cheese. This will give the dip a rich and creamy texture.
- Chop the chives finely before adding them to the dip. This will help to distribute their flavor evenly.
- Season the dip with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the pita chips with the mascarpone chive dip immediately. The chips are best when they are fresh and crispy.
