Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Break the Lasagna Sheets
Place the dry lasagna sheets on a clean surface.

Cook at 392°F (200°C) for about 15 minutes.
Shake halfway through cooking.
Optional: Lightly drizzle or spray olive oil before air frying for extra crispiness.
Step 4: Prepare the Creamy Dip
Spread cream cheese on a serving plate.
Drizzle olive oil over it.
Season with salt and black pepper.
Mix slightly or leave layered for presentation.
Step 5: Serve
Serve the crispy lasagna chips hot and fresh with the creamy dip.
Enjoy immediately for the best crunch.
