Can I Brag For Just a Minute?....

Posted by on | |
Thank you. I have been staring at a bottomless bag of corn tortillas in my fridge for the past month. And when I say bottomless, I mean - a years food storage supply! (too bad they expire Nov. 26) The minimum package that Michael was able to manage finding in the store was 60, so we bought, bagged and brought them home to sit in the fridge. Little by little, they disappeared, and by that I mean - I think we ate 6 one night with carne asada. So tonight whilst traversing through our fridge, trying to figure out what was going to be on the menu tonight, my eyes were fixated on the said tortillas. I decided then that I needed to rid ourselves of at least some of them, so I didn't feel so guilty for buying them. I mean I know I have 36 days to eat them, but it might just take all 36 days, plus some to wipe out that bag. It was then I decided to make homemade tortilla chips. Brilliant? Yes, I think so. Easy? You bet.

This isn't my picture, and this isn't my guacamole dip either. But I sure do plan on making it next time I get sick of looking at 15 avocados in my fridge. I also made these for the main course and the jury is still out. Michael gets home in 5 minutes so I'll know in about 6, whether or not I recommend them.

You should not brag on the blog until you know the verdict......this could be serious serious trouble!

Julie I am impressed! One day my husband and I attempted to make homemade tortilla chips...needless to say Ryker used WAY too much oil, they turned out limp and soggy...we didnt eat more than one because we didn't want to suffer a heart attack due to a clogged artery caused by a tortilla chip :)
