Salt
Halloween cookie cutter

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F and lightly grease a cookie sheet.
Step 2: Working with one tortilla at a time, use your Halloween cookie cutter to cut out ghost-shaped chips. Aim for 5-6 ghosts per tortilla, placing cuts close to minimize waste.
Step 3: Transfer the cutouts to the prepared baking sheet. Lightly mist the chips with avocado or olive oil spray and sprinkle with salt to taste.
Step 4: Bake in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes, until crispy. Serve warm with salsa, guacamole, or your favorite dip.

Tips & Variations

Try different Halloween shapes such as bats or pumpkins for variety.
Sprinkle a little chili powder or smoked paprika with the salt for a spicy twist.

Storage

Store leftover chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days to maintain crispness. If they soften, reheat briefly in the oven at 350 degrees F for 2-3 minutes to refresh their crunch.
