Low Carb Tortilla Chips
This recipe is probably one of the more simple ones I’ve shared here! It starts with already made low carb tortillas and ends with a crispy chip that tastes just as good as what you buy at the store!
I love making different snacks and dips, especially around the holidays. Since turning to a low carb lifestlye though, I’ve struggled with what to eat with those dips. Sure, carrots and celery or other veggies are always a good idea, but sometimes I just want something crunchy and salty to go with my cheeseball! Is that too much to ask? Well, not any more!
This recipe for low carb tortilla chips only uses 3 ingredients, and takes about 15 minutes! They go great with a Mexican 7-Layer Dip, or this slow cooker spinach queso. Starting out with already pre made low carb tortillas (these are my favorite) makes this recipe incredibly simple!
The first weekend we had our new Instant Pot, I made a batch of buffalo chicken dip but we only had a handful of baby carrots and celery to go with it. I quickly baked a batch of these low carb tortilla chips while I was waiting for the dip to finish! Perfect timing!
They store really well too! I haven’t had a batch stick around longer than a week, but just keep them in an airtight container and they should stay fresh for a few weeks!
- 6 low carb tortillas
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp taco seasoning or your favorite!
-
Preheat oven to 375 and line a large baking sheet (or 2) with parchment paper.
-
Brush olive oil onto each low carb tortilla.
-
Cut each low carb tortilla into triangles. I find the easiest way to do so is with a pizza cutter.
-
Place the tortillas on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Sprinkle with taco seasoning (or your favorite combo!)
-
Bake for 8-10 minutes, until chips just start to brown around the edges. Be careful not to burn!
-
Let cool completely so they crisp up.
Serve with your favorite dip!
