    So much better than the store bought chips and really not that much more effort. I paired them with the Tomatillo Salsa from Susan Fineger and Mary Sue Millican (Border Grill and sangria for appetizers. Delish.

    VERY nice basic recipe for making your own tortilla chips! I tried two recipes back to back....baking the FLOUR tortillas and frying them....I think frying is the best method for the flour tortilla chips. Next time I will try the CORN tortilla chips (again trying both methods and see what the difference is. I used these chips as a substitute for crackers (as I didn't have any on hand for a roasted garlic and brie appetizer...I don't think I will be buying boxed crackers anymore!
