Back Story

This recipe was born umpteen years ago, if you will, because I had leftover vegetables from chicken pot pie. Realizing there were corn tortilla shells, creme fraiche and chevre in the fridge, I knew right away a dip was in my immediate future.

Easy Solutions

Making homemade corn tortilla chips happens to be easy. First, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Next, stack tortilla shells and cut into medium strips an either brush or mist with grapeseed oil.

Arrange pieces on a parchment lined baking pan, cooking 15 to 20 minutes or until desired crispness is reached. Once done, immediately sprinkle with sea salt or your favorite flavored spice blend.
