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!

Daddy's Sunday Pancakes

This is the recipe my dad used to make us all the time when we were younger. EVERY Sunday he would wake us up early and make us pancakes, eggs, and bacon. We get this special syrup from our family back in Maryland. I don't think they sell it anywhere in Utah. It's a shame.. because this is the worlds most amazing syrup.. I love love love it! My grandparents ship it out to us in boxes because we love it so much. It is definitely my favorite thing to top off the amazing pancakes. Anyways... the recipe! ☺ Ingredients: • 4 cups of flour • 6 tsp baking powder • 1 tsp salt • 2 Tbsp sugar • 4 eggs • 2 ½ cups of milk Instructions: 1. Mix everything together 2. Cook on a skillet or frying pan (whatever works) until bubbly. I find that cooking it on medium heat works best. And as soon as it is getting pretty bubbly just flip it! 3. Top it off with whatever pancake stuff you like and then eat! ENJOY! thanks for reading!

Cheesy & Spicy Grilled Cajun Chicken

This is the recipe for the super yummy cajun chicken that I had with the roasted mashed potatoes. This chicken is nice and spicy, but is toned down a little with the cheese on top. So.. lets get down to business! Makes about 5 servings if each person has 2 pieces of chicken (yes yes I know in the picture there are 4 pieces on the plate.. I didn't finish it all because I was stuffed like a turkey) Ingredients: 10 thawed out chicken tenderloins 1 Tbsp olive oil 2 Tbsp Cajun seasoning 1 tsp sea salt 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese Instructions: Take your thawed out chicken and place it in a bowl. Add your olive oil, Cajun seasoning, and salt to the bowl and toss/mix (whateva) until the chicken is nicely coated with the seasonings. Now cook on the grill... Everyone has their different techniques to using the grill. I just spray mine with a little non stick spray and cook them until they are done. I like to use a meat thermometer to check them s...
