If you love charcuterie boards but want something a little crunchier and a whole lot more protein packed, these Protein Charcuterie Chips are your new go to! Inspired by the viral trend, this upgraded version swaps traditional potato chips for crispy chicken breast chips. These Protein Charcuterie Chips are the snack board gone high protein and high flavor. My husband’s a big fan, he’s already added these to his game day snack lineup. But honestly? They’re just as perfect for a patio wine night with friends or as a protein girl dinner.

Ingredients

  • 1 bag protein chips – I used Wilde Himalayan Pink Salt Chips (made from chicken breast)
  • Stracciatella cheese – the creamy center of burrata
  • Garlic dip – I used Toom Garlic Dip for bold flavor
  • Pepperoni chub – diced or use sliced pepperoni
  • Marinated artichokes – diced oil packed adds great flavor
  • Sliced hot cherry peppers – for that briny heat
  • Grated Parmesan cheese – freshly grated if possible

Optional: Add a drizzle of hot honey or fresh herbs for extra flair!

How to Make Protein Charcuterie Chips

This recipe comes together in under 10 minutes with zero cooking. Just layer and enjoy!

Step 1 – Spread the Chips

Open your bag of Wilde protein chips, remove and discard the silica gel packet, and spread the chips out on a large platter or sheet pan. Make sure to create an even layer for maximum topping coverage.

Step 2 – Add the Dips

Use a spoon to dollop stracciatella and garlic dip across the chips. Spread slightly, but keep some texture, it adds to the presentation.

Step 3 – Layer the Toppings

Sprinkle the diced pepperoni, marinated artichokes, and hot cherry peppers over the top. Finish with a generous shower of grated Parmesan. Serve immediately for the best crunch!

FAQs

Can I use another chip brand?

Sure! Look for high protein chips with a sturdy texture. Wilde Chicken Chips are my favorite because they hold up well and taste amazing.

Where do I find stracciatella?

It’s the creamy inside of burrata. Most upscale grocery stores or Italian delis will carry it, or just slice open a ball of burrata and scoop it out!

Is this recipe keto or low carb?

Wilde Chips are lower in carbs than traditional chips and high in protein, making this a good snack option for many low carb lifestyles. Always double check the packaging for exact macros.

How do I store leftovers?

These are best served fresh for maximum crunch, but you can refrigerate them for a few hours if needed. Just note: the chips will soften slightly, bringing out more of that savory chicken flavor from the chips, but they’ll still taste amazing.

What other toppings could I use?

Try roasted red peppers, sun dried tomatoes, sliced olives, hot honey, or fresh herbs like basil and thyme.

Life lately…🤍 The past couple weeks have been ful Life lately…🤍

The past couple weeks have been full in the best way. Between kids’ sports, family time, and having my Grandma here (she’s 88 and visiting from New Jersey), I just wanted to slow down and really be present for it all.

A lot of real life, a lot of good food, and a lot of moments I didn’t want to rush through.

I’ve missed being on here and sharing with you. Easing back in this week and excited to share more 🫶🏼

PS: LAST SLIDE IS my Great Grandma’s plum cake recipe!!

Okay I know Easter is basically over… but you need Okay I know Easter is basically over… but you need to save this for next year 🐰✝️ Or honestly, just make it all spring long 🌸

My dad (who doesn’t bake at all) made this cake when I was little, and it’s one of my fav core Easter memories 🤍 It’s so cute, fun to get kids involved with, and instantly makes everything feel a little more fun and special!

INSTRUCTIONS:
Bake your favorite cake in two 8-inch round pans. Let them cool completely, then wrap and freeze for easier cutting.

Keep one cake whole for the face. Cut the second cake to create the ears and bow tie, then arrange everything on a platter.

Frost with white icing and cover with shredded coconut (leave a little space in the ears for pink frosting). 

Decorate with gumdrops, jelly beans, fruit punch straws, or whatever candy you have on hand!

SAVE this for spring or next Easter 🐰
