    Well, it's another internet trend that I had to try - and obviously vegan-ize. The original recipe calls for lots of parmesan, but instead of just switching it to vegan parmesan, I decided to totally change up the whole thing and make pasta chips with buffalo sauce instead. This is a super fun recipe and can be served up as a quick snack.

    How to make Air Fryer Buffalo Pasta Chips

    First you'll need an air fryer - sorry I don't have any baking instructions for this one. If you are in the market for an air fryer, you can find the one I have here.

    When it comes to the pasta, you want something short and stocky. I went with rigatoni! Cook the pasta until al dente - be sure not to overcook it. Drain the pasta and give it a quick rinse.

    Transfer the pasta to a bowl and toss with buffalo sauce, garlic powder, onion powder and pepper. Give everything a quick toss and add it to an oiled air fryer basket. Cook at 400 for 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway.

    Serve it up

    In my opinion, the best way to serve these chips is with a side of vegan ranch and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro. I've included a recipe for my favorite homemade vegan ranch - way better than the store bought stuff!

    Some of the chips will be super crunchy, some will be a little softer. They'll all taste good! I will say these are best eaten all at once. So grab someone to share these with and dig in!
