Homemade Flour Tortilla Chips


One thing you should know about my family is that we LOVE chips and salsa... especially my  husband. So, today while I was out at the store.. I forgot to buy more tortilla chips *sigh*. Instead of making another trip out to the store I figured I would try and make some homemade chips since I had extra tortillas laying around from when I made fajitas. 

All the stuff you need!

Lay them out on a baking sheet

Spray each side of the tortillas with cooking spray and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

This is what they turn out like if you cook them at too high of a temperature

This is how they look when you cook them at the RIGHT temperature

Delicious bowl of chips!

These turned out SO yummy. They were definitely different than a corn tortilla chip.. but they were light and crunchy and oh so delicious. Also.. they were extremely easy to make. Instead of all this nonsense lets just get to the good stuff!

Ingredients:
  • 1 pack of tortillas
  • cooking spray
  • salt
  • pepper if you want
Instructions:
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°. If you try a higher temp.. they will burn quick.. trust me.. I tried.
  2. Cut up your tortillas with a big knife. Some people cut them into 4s I cut mine into 6 or 7s.. all depends on what you want to do.
  3. Lay them out on a baking sheet. 
  4. Spray them with cooking spray and salt and pepper them. Flip them over and spray again and salt and pepper.
  5. Bake in the oven for 5 minutes. They honestly don't need any longer than that. I think if you wanted to do it for 6 minutes they would be a little extra brown. 
  6. Serve with salsa or whatever dip you would like.. or nothing at all! 
ENJOY! 
Thanks for reading!

Corned Beef and Cabbage

Well, its St. Patricks day... so I decided to try my hand at making corned beef and cabbage. I have never made it before but I was very very pleasently surprised with how it turned out. Corned beef is one of my husbands absolute favorite foods, and he says the way I cooked it was the best he has ever had. I also liked it, especially for my first time ever eating it. Here is how its done! Ingredients: Package of corned beef (you can get it at Walmart, Harmons, Smiths, most grocery stores) Salt Water 1 head of cabbage Instructions: (Now to make your own corned beef from scratch it literally takes 7-10 days to cure.. so that is why I (and most people) buy it packaged.) Take your corned beef and trim off a little bit of the fat on top. Me and my husband both have texture issues.. and it didn't seem to affect how moist the meat was. And honestly you can skip this step if it seems like too much of a pain, all the fat dissolved off anyways. Take a rack (I used a co...

Super Delicious Peanut Butter Cookies!

Ok now first off I have to say that this is not MY recipe. It is one I found on pinterest. It is by far my favorite peanut butter cookie recipe I have tried. The cookie dough doesn’t stay firm enough to press in the fork marks.. BUT they spread out and get huge and they are still nice and chewy without being gooey. I found the original recipe here  http://www.momtastic.com/cooking-recipes/dessert/164457-classic-peanut-butter-cookies Now.. on this website it looks like she was able to get the fork marks.. so I am not sure what I am doing that is so different.. maybe it is that I just dump all the ingredients in a bowl at the same time and don’t do dry and wet separate at first.. but oh well… this is how I do it :) Ingredients: 2 cups flour 1/2 tsp baking soda or maybe a tini bit more… which might be why mine spread out more 1/4 tsp salt 1 1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar 1 1/4 cup white sugar 1 cup softened butter (I do the “no no" and slightly soften in t...

Vincent eating a warhead

Ok... so I know I haven't posted on here in a while. I have been crazy crazy busy this month. I have dressed up in Halloween costumes on 6-7 different occasions along with 2 kids. And let me tell ya.. it takes all the energy out of you. This year my son FINALLY was a Hobbit and my girlie pie was a fairy princess! ANYWAYS... Tonight was Halloween and we did some trick or treating. At first when we went out my little (now 3 year old! He just had his birthday yesterday!) guy, he was so tired he started falling asleep while trick or treating. So I gave him an hour or so to get a second wind and took him out again. He got lots more candy and we came home once he was satisfied. He then preceded to take a nap (which I thought was bedtime) and he woke up at 11:30 at night. SO we are going to be up super super late. BUT it payed off because I got the best belly laugh I have EVER had. Out of all the candy he had in his bucket.. he decided to pick out the warhead. Now, if any of you hav...
