Recipe -- BEST healthy chips ever!
I'm kinda proud of this...did some experimenting and came up with a VERY yummy substitute for chips, when you've just gotta have that salty, crunchy side. Goes GREAT with Robin's Taco Soup!
Baked Whole Wheat Tortilla Chips
whole wheat tortillas
Olive Oil flavored PAM
1 TBSP kosher salt
1 TBSP garlic salt
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dried basil
- Preheat oven to 350*
- Cover large cookie sheet with aluminum foil (makes for very easy clean up)
- Mix salt and spices into a small dish
- Stack three tortillas and cut the stack into 8 equal wedges (pizza slicer works great for this)
- Spray foil covered cookie sheet with PAM
- Lay the tortilla wedges out in a single layer
- Spray top of the wedges with PAM
- Using your fingers, sprinkle the salt mixture across each triangle
- Bake for 8-9 minutes (until the corners start to curl upwards)
I'm not fussy about a little extra salt...I get very little of it in my diet as it is, because I eat very little processed foods anymore. But if anyone is worried about salt intake, the spice topping can be adjusted to whatever fits your needs and taste.
Hope you like 'em!! Eight chips = one tortilla and is a VERY satisfying snack!

Re: Recipe -- BEST healthy chips ever!
BTW...that salt mixture is plenty for a several batches! Don't try to use it all on one batch!

Re: Recipe -- BEST healthy chips ever!
How many are you eating...and how many calories are in each chip? This doesn't look like something that's gonna help you out much. Just because it's "healthy" it doesn't mean it's good for your progress.

Certainly, if I sat and ate them nonstop like I used to do with regular chips, I agree completely. But a deliberate serving isn't bad.
One whole tortilla is 110 calories. At the very most, if I get heavy-handed with the PAM, that adds another 7 calories to the whole tortilla. So let's call it 120 cals per tortilla...split into eight pieces, makes it 15 calories per chip.
But I do believe that in order for me to break through a tough plateau, even reasonable snacks/side-dishes like this one need to be kept out of the picture. I'm definitely focused this week!
EDIT: A "serving" being 8 chips, or one whole tortilla
