Don't just toss that nearly empty chip bag. Use up those crunchy chip bits in these delicious recipes.
It happens to the best of us. You're enjoying a lovely bag of potato chips, but once you get to bottom there's little left except chip fragments and a layer of potato-y dust. Forget throwing out those little crispy crumbs. These four recipes will use up your leftovers, all the while giving that satisfying crunchy texture.

Potato-Crusted Chicken Fingers
These chicken fingers are pan-fried in a small amount of canola oil and coated with a crispy mixture of baked potato chips and flour. Serve with a side of veggies and whole grains for an easy weeknight meal.
Spanish "Tortilla" Omelet
Say hello to next-level breakfast for dinner. Inspired by a traditional crispy, potato-studded Spanish tortilla, our quick-fix fluffy omelet is topped with potato chips for a touch of crunch.
