    Oh man, that really is the worst! I hope you’re feeling better. These chips look awesome and maybe they help clear the sinuses out? Or that’s just a good excuse to eat more!

    As much as I love dessert recipes, savoury ones get me a million times more excited! I’ve never made my own tortilla chips before, but I’m so picky it more than makes sense. One for when I have an oven. 🙂

    I can’t wait to try these! My husband is a chip maniac. Seriously, when someone asks him what his favorite food is, he always says chips and salsa (sigh). I’m sure these will be verrry popular in our house!
