Chips!!!

Chips, Nachos, Salsa, Guacamole, basically I am a sucker for anything mexican especially tortilla chips! Honestly a giant plate of nachos is usually my treat meal once a week I have no idea what it is about them but they are just so addicting so needless to say I was pleased when figured out how to make my own "clean" version at home!

I say "clean" because I use these carb chopper tortilla, (1 tortilla is only 70 calories and 6 carbs and 4 grams of protein!) Im a sucker for low carb and protein rich foods, so I bought them and they are actually quite tasty! 

So for the chips its actually quite easy! 

Chips:
4 and 1/2 Carb chopper tortillas
Cooking spray (pam)
Chili Powder

Simply heat the oven the 350 degrees, cut the tortillas into 8ths place on a baking sheet. Then lightly spray with oil and sprinkle with what ever seasoning you want, I just used chili powder. Cook for about 12 minutes rotating the baking sheep half way through and your done! 

Now for my dip today! I made Shrimp and Salmon Ceviche, quite tasty and so nutritious and filled with protein. 


Shrimp and Salmon Ceviche
2 Servings cooked baby shrimp (2 cups) chopped
1 Can Chicken of the sea Salmon (use the juice)
2 cups chopped cucumber
1 chopped tomato
1/2 Cup Chopped red onion
1 Serano chili pepper
1 Tbsp Garlic
Handful of cilantro
Juice of 1 lime
Seasoning to taste (chili flakes, garlic powder, onion powder)

Mix everything together and let set for an hour its that simple! 

This recipe makes 3 servings ( 1/3 of the Ceviche, 12 chips and then I topped it with half a small avocado)
