                Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray it with oil to prevent sticking.

                Drain the excess liquid from the cottage cheese using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth. This step helps the chips crisp up better.

                Using a spoon or small ice cream scoop, place small mounds of cottage cheese onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each mound with the back of a spoon to form thin, round chips. Leave space between each for even baking.
              
              
              
                04 - 
                Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chips turn golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
              
              
              
                05 - 
                Let the chips cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. They will crisp up further as they cool. Transfer the cooled chips to a serving plate and enjoy as a snack or with your favorite dip.

                Lightly spray parchment paper (cut to fit your microwave plate) with oil. Drain the excess liquid from the cottage cheese using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth.
              
              
              
                07 - 
                Spread an even layer of cottage cheese onto the prepared parchment paper. Microwave on high for 2-3 minutes, or until the mixture turns golden brown and crispy. Cooking times may vary based on your microwave's power, so watch closely to prevent burning.

                Carefully remove the parchment paper from the microwave and let it cool for a few minutes. Break the cooled mixture into snack-sized pieces and enjoy.
