Paleo Tortilla Chips
I love tortilla chips. Once I eliminated corn from my diet I just put the tortilla chip in the rear view mirror. I’m pretty sure I ate my weight in chips and salsa in the weeks leading up to me officially going grain free! So now you know, I love tortilla chips and I love tacos. To say I was on a quest to find a replacement was a total understatement. I wasn’t sure I was going to be able to sustain this way of eating if I couldn’t have a few of my old faves.
My Findings
First, I found Otto’s Cassava Flour and I started making my own tortillas. I also found Siete Foods tortillas, the ingredients are : CASSAVA FLOUR • WATER • COCONUT FLOUR • COCONUT OIL • PASTURED PORK LARD • APPLE CIDER VINEGAR • SEA SALT • XANTHAN GUM. These are the Cassava & Coconut Tortillas and they are a wonderful option if you have cut out wheat and corn from your diet. These are a great replacement for both flour and corn tortillas. I like to make my own, but it is nice to have the convenience of these delicious tortillas from Siete Foods.
Siete Foods also makes tortilla chips now and if you have a chance pick up the lime tortilla chips do it!
In this case I decided to make my own, because I’m crazy like that. These are the easiest of easy to make. You can use whatever shaped cookie cutter, I just happened to have a heart and star on hand…….I’m pretty much a sucker for anything heart shaped!

Notes
For another option try sprinkling each side with the salt, garlic powder, ground cumin and ground coriander to taste on both sides.
Using 3 tortillas this should yield between 20-24 chips depending on what shapes you cut the tortillas into.
