Tortilla Chips or other tortilla chips. Makes about 2 3/4 cups dip.
Oven-Crisp Tortilla Chips: Here's an easy way to make your own
tortilla chips without frying them. Cut flour tortillas into wedges
with kitchen shears or a knife. Place the wedges on an ungreased
baking sheet and toast in a 350F oven for 10 to 12 minutes or till
dry and crisp. You'll find they're sturdy for dipping, there's no
messy cleanup, and the chips are lower in calories than those you buy
in the store.

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting made easyWhen deciding on a weight loss program, it is essential to try to restrict your intake of salt, fat and refined carbohydrate.
Some low carbohydrate diet pointers:
* Use reduced carbohydrate chocolate for cookies and muffins. If you have gone to the trouble of converting your favorite chocolate chip cookie or muffins recipe using soy flour, it would be crazy to put in those high carb chocolate chips. Chop up a reduced carb bar of chocolate into small pieces and use that as an alternative.
* Replace sugar with splenda. Recipes that call for sugar can be modified to make use of a sugar substitute like splenda. It doesn't weigh the same so you will have to expirement with it and it might not be perfect for every dish, but it gives very good results in most cases.
