Healthy Homemade Chips Salsa Recipes

SALSA

Steps:

• In a medium-size mixing bowl, combine tomatoes, onion, cilantro, garlic, lime juice, tomatillo, and salt to taste. Mix well. Add 1/2 of the jalapeno pepper, and taste. If you desire your salsa with more of a kick, add the remaining 1/2 jalapeno. If you are satisfied with the salsa's heat, do not add the remaining jalapeno pepper. Cover the salsa, and chill until ready to serve.

SALSA AND CHIPS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together the tomatoes, onion, jalapeno, coriander. Season with salt and pepper. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside for 1 hour. Serve with Tortilla Chips.
• Pour the oil into a large heavy-bottomed pot to a depth of about 2 inches. Place a deep-frying thermometer in the pot. Heat the oil over medium heat to 360 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, stack the tortillas, and cut the pile into sixths to make chips.
• Raise the heat to high. Working in batches, fry the chips, turning them with a skimmer or slotted spoon, until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the chips to a paper towel-lined pan to drain. (Return the oil to the proper temperature between batches.) Cool and season with salt. Serve.

HEALTHY HOMEMADE CHIPS & SALSA

Steps:

• To Make Salsa:.
• Combine all the ingredients in a blender and pulse until you form a rough paste. Add more salt/chilli/corriander to taste.
• To Make Chips:.
• Pre-heat oven to 200 oC.
• Split pitta bread in two.
• Slice pitta bread into triangular 'chips'.
• Bake on a metal tray for 3-4 minutes.
• Now dip and enjoy!
• Notes:.
• If the salsa is too watery, add a little more tomato paste.
• You don't need any oil on the pitta bread, which makes the chips extra healthy. They cook very quickly, so don't forget about them when you put them in the oven!
• To make extra hot chips, pat them with water and sprinkle with cayenne pepper before baking.

CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP V

Steps:

• In a large pot over medium heat, cook and stir chicken in the oil for 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cumin and mix well. Then add the broth, corn, onion, chili powder, lemon juice, and salsa. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 20 to 30 minutes.
• Break up some tortilla chips into individual bowls and pour soup over chips. Top with the Monterey Jack cheese and a little sour cream.

CHIPS AND SALSA SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Make Dressing: combine lime juice, olive oil, zest, garlic, cream, 1/2t salt and 1/4t pepper in a bowl or mason jar and whisk/shake to combine.
• Roast your peppers until they are a nice even char on all sides. (You can do this on a grill, under the broiler or I like to roast them directly on gas stovetop.) Place your roasted peppers in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap to steam. .
• Once the peppers have cooled, scrape the skin off, take the seeds out, remove the ribs (if you desire less heat) and cut into strips/dice. Place in a large bowl.
• While waiting for peppers to cool. Cut both the corn and flour tortillas into half and then into thin strips.
• Add oil, cumin, salt and pepper to a bowl and stir to combine. Add tortilla strips and toss to coat. .
• Spread into an even layer on a baking sheet and bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes, until crispy.
• Cut tomatoes into small wedges or large chunks and place in the bowl with the peppers. Salt generously. Add cilantro and 1/4 cup of the dressing and toss gently.
• Place the tomato salad on plates and top with tortilla strips. Serve immediately. (If you let it set to long the salt will pull all the juice out of your tomatoes).
• Optional additions: roasted corn, diced or fried avocado, grilled chicken/pressed tofu (marinated in the dressing), queso fresco.
