Here's How to Make Your Own Tortilla Chips in a Pinch
We can all understand the feeling that you get when the waiter brings out your freshly made tortilla chips and queso—pure joy. Most college kids can't afford to go out to a Mexican restaurant every night (I know I can't), so why not make your own at home for under $4?
Sometimes, all a girl needs is a fried, crunchy, tortilla chip. Never mind the healthy, low calorie stuff, we want the real deal. Top off the chips with some mango salsa, cheesy queso, or savory guac to really satisfy your craving.
