Oh man, I used to love Doritos, but I have to say, my Doritos eating days are long behind me. I know that there is no way that I could create a homemade Dorito replica (at least not in a healthy way), but I felt pretty confident that I could create a tasty baked chip.

Inspired by the spicy chips of my childhood, I put a lot of flavor into these baked chips - chili powder, cumin, paprika and cayenne pepper. I even opted to use lime juice instead of oil to make the spices stick. A lower calorie option that gives the chips more zing!

These are perfect for any time you want a snack. You can dip them in salsa or guacamole - or eat them plain.

Chili Lime Tortilla Chips

12 corn tortillas, cut into quarters

1/2 a lime

1 teaspoon chili powder

1/2 teaspoon cumin

1/2 teaspoon paprika

pinch cayenne pepper

salt to taste (optional - I didn't use any)

Preheat your oven to 350F

Mix the spices together in a bowl. Add a pinch of salt if you're using salt.

Put the corn tortilla pieces in a gallon size ziplock bag. Ad the lime juice and shake gently to coat the tortilla pieces.

Add the remaining spice mix a little at at time, shaking the chips to coat.

Spread the chips out on a pan and place in to the oven. Depending on the size of your pan, you may need to do two or three batches. Cook for X until the chips are crispy and just starting to change color.

Variations: Substitute lemon juice for lime juice and 2 teaspoons of your favorite curry powder instead of the spice blend.
