Ingredients
- ½ cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1 teaspoon dried chervil

- Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut each pita bread into 8 triangles.
- Arrange some pita triangles in a single layer on each of the prepared baking sheets. Brush the triangles with the oil mixture. Note that not all triangles will fit, so set the remaining ones aside.
