Olive Garden Is Sharing Super Bowl Snack Hack: Loaded Pasta Chips

Olive Garden is releasing what it considers the perfect Super Bowl party appetizer hack, and one that will also be added to its menu starting Jan. 29.

The Loaded Pasta Chips, said the Olive Garden spokespeople, are an "Italian twist on nachos swapping tortilla chips for lightly fried pasta chips topped with Italian Cheeses, a meat sauce with chicken, meatballs and sausage, cherry peppers and an Alfredo drizzle."

The restaurant chain recently shared its hack for fans to make them at home for the big game. The recipe calls for lasagna noodles, lightly fried and tossed in garlic salt – topped with favorite Italian toppings.

Loaded Pasta Chips will be available at Olive Garden restaurants until April 1.

And here, from the Olive Garden, is that recipe:

1. Stack lasagna noodle sheets on a cutting board.
2. Cut each sheet into 3 equal pieces
3. Heat oil into a pan and gradually add chips to the oil; fry until crispy
4. Transfer cooked chips to basket and allow the excess oil to drain for 1 minute
5. Gently toss cooked chips in garlic salt to coat
6. Add your favorite toppings
7. Boun Appetito!
