I miss chips and salsa. If I had to pinpoint something I really miss, this would be it. I make a quick keto snack when I really need something. I love these while I am watching tv in the evening! We also use these with our taco bowls or to make tostadas. Most shredded cheese will work, whatever is your favorite! Today we made a chicken jalapeño soup and I made these for a side. If you make these tasty treats, share what cheese you use and how you like them. I set the recipe up using 1.5 cups of cheese. Your macros may change based on the amount of cheese you use.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees and put parchment paper on a baking sheet for easy clean up. Parchment paper is a lifesaver with this way of life. Today I made Mexican cheese chips. Place little piles on the baking sheet, like haystacks. These are soooo easy. Place them in the oven at 375 for about 8 minutes. The longer you leave them in the crispier they become.

This is what my snack plate looks like on any given night. These are crispier when they first come out of the oven, the longer they sit, the chewier they become. The recipe I created is below. Remember to watch the carbs in sour cream and some salsas have sugar. Pay attention to your labels.
