Tortilla Chips



I think this is more of an idea than a recipe, but it's a really good idea. No more wasting old tortillas. We used to throw away tortillas that were to old or too hard to eat. Then, today, I realized that tortilla chips must be just tortillas fried in some oil. Cooking hard old tortillas was amazing. Turning them into edible chips that were topped with cheese opened up a whole new world for me. Imagine all the nachos I could make, or just the simple fact that instead of throwing away tortillas I can turn them into amazing tortilla chips. It seems with this recipe, the older the tortilla, the better.

Cut the tortillas in half and than a fourth and even 1/8. It seems the 1/8 size is manageable. Fry them until golden brown. Top with some cheese, salsa and ground meat cooked with taco seasonings for nachos. Or you can add some guacamole or some sour cream and enjoy.
