"This is really more of a cooking secret than a recipe...I came up with this last night when I made Mexican food for dinner...GREAT!"

ingredients

• 16 ounces tortilla chips

directions

1. Using cooking oil (I use vegetable), I spray the inside of the pan generously.

These were great! I had a pack of tortillas in the pantry, and cut each round into 12 wedges. I used olive oil spray, and lots of course salt. They were a HUGE hit at my football party, and my Mum actually thought they were store bought, didn't realise I had made them myself, they were so good! They were a hit with the kids too, so I'll be making these often! Great recipe Linzi! [Made for Fall 08 PAC]

Oh my.....what great technique! It absolutely does taste as good or even better than restaurant chips. Who wold have ever thought someting so simple would taste so good. I served these with Laurita's chili. PERFECT. Because this is so so and simple, I plan on serving them A LOT!!! Thanks so much for sharing, Linzi Jordan.
