Helpful Hints:
|
Baked tortilla chips are much lower in fat than the usual fried ones. Use a salt shaker to lightly sprinkle chips with salt before baking. If desired, other seasonings can be used in place of salt. Try a light shake of chili powder or packaged taco seasoning for flavor. For dessert chips, sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar.
 |
Safety Tip:
|
A pizza cutter is a safe way for kids to cut tortillas into triangle-shape pieces. Otherwise, clean kitchen scissors allow kids to safely cut many ingredients, including tortillas.
While a soft tortilla is a great food for a young child, a crisp tortilla chip poses a possible choking hazard. Crisp chips are not recommended for children under 3 years of age. For safety’s sake, watch children closely during snack and meal times to prevent choking.
