First, consider the ingredients in the popular snacks, just don’t cut it if you are looking for healthier snack choices. Too much salt, hydrogenated oils, artificial colors and that’s just a partial ingredient list. We didn’t even mention the fat and the salt. And then there is the price. Economic factors have made snacks kind of pricey, most are over 3.00. Really, one could buy real food, for as much as snacks cost.
So here is a quick recipe for tortilla chips:

Stack up five 8-inch flour tortillas and cut into eight wedges to make forty chips. Spread these in a single layer on two baking sheets, bake for ten to fifteen minutes at 375 degrees, or until crispy. Quick, yummy, and you avoid the likes of red dye #40.
