Crispy Tortilla Chips are a popular snack derived from traditional Mexican cuisine. Made from corn tortillas that are sliced and fried or baked to achieve a crunchy texture, these chips often feature a lightly salted or seasoned finish. Their ingredients typically include whole corn, vegetable oil, and a pinch of salt, though some varieties may include added spices or flavoring. Rich in flavor but typically high in sodium and fat due to frying, they offer a satisfying crunch that pairs well with salsa, guacamole, or queso. While tortilla chips provide some dietary fiber and essential minerals like magnesium from the corn, moderation is key due to their calorie density and fat content. Baked versions are often a healthier alternative, offering lower fat options while maintaining a delightful crispness. Perfect for dipping or enjoyed on their own, tortilla chips are a staple snack that blends flavor with cultural tradition.
