Herb Pita Chips

I opened my freezer and discovered a package of pita bread.  I also had quite an assortment of fresh herbs in my refrigerator, so I wanted to try something different with pita chips.  I have tried the basic recipe of drizzling pita triangles with olive oil and sea salt and baking, they are very good but quite basic.  I brought out my herbs and some butter and tried a different approach to baked pita chips.  I have to say they were amazing.  When my husband came home from work; I had just brought a batch out of the oven. It was all I could do but to take the photo below before we decided we needed to try my creation.  Can I just say, not sure how to recommend storing these since we ate the entire batch with a great class of wine!  Off to the gym tomorrow…
