Make Your Own Southwest Spiced Chips

Home-made Southwest Spiced Chips

I love those “gourmet” chips they sell at the grocery stores these days, but the problem is that for a little sprinkle of, say, chipotle powder, they charge you 2 or 3 times the price of regular old potato chips.

So, I decided to experiment with my own spiced chips.

This is so incredibly simple that you’ll be making your own spiced chips in no time!

THIS IS THE ENTIRE RECIPE. NO, REALLY: Spread potato chips on a baking sheet in a single layer. Heat in a 400 degree oven for 2 to 3 minutes, just until chips become oily. Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle with spice mix of choice.

Try one of our three FFF spice blends, or whip up your own. Chef Bobby Flay has a fabulous 16-spice blend, if you’re feeling ambitious. Or, just use a favorite spice from your pantry. I love just plain smoked paprika or cumin. Yum!

Happy Summer Everyone!

What a great idea. I never thought to start out with purchased chips. You have great ideas.
