Notes
I use a pizza cutter to cut the tortillas into wedges.
These are much healthier than the fried tortilla chips. They are great served warm with my 8 Layer Mexican Dip, Great Guacamole, my Pico De Gallo, or Queso Blanco cheese dip! Perfect for my Ultimate Nachos too! cooled.
If you slice them into thin strips instead of wedges they add a fun crunch on top of salads, soups and stews! I love them on top of my Way Too Easy White Chicken Chili, Southwest Chicken Stew, Taco Soup, and Southwest Turkey Soup.
You can use other seasonings besides salt like chili powder and cumin.
Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
