Home-made Tortilla Chips

Sometimes I just get in the mood for something salty. I like pretzels and some chips, but I don't always keep those on hand. Something really quick and easy to make are home-made tortilla chips.

Tortilla Chips (a serving size is one tortilla and points depends on your tortillas)

Ingredients:

1 tortilla
cooking spray
salt to taste

Directions:

Cut tortilla into several triangles, I usually cut about 8. Keep the triangles as close together as possible and spray with cooking spray and sprinkle with salt to taste. Place in a toaster oven or conventional oven set to about 450 degrees F. Let bake until the chips are crispy and golden brown.

These are great to make on a whim. I like to use the Santa Fe Tortilla Company's Whole Wheat Tortillas; they are only 1 point a piece. One tortilla makes 8 large chips, and you don't get a lot of broken chips like you do from a bag. Also, these pair well with a delicious homemade salsa or guacamole, so keep them in mind whenever you need a good chip.
