Recipe: layered dip and homemade chips

CREATIVE LEFTOVER RECIPE: LAYERED DIP AND HOMEMADE CHIPS

Layered Dip (This also makes a great filling for burritos)
Layer the following in an individual serving dish (we have a lot of glass containers for lunches):
beans
shredded or diced meat
diced veggies
salsa
cheese

 Homemade chips
I love this recipe for using up corn tortillas that are about to be too hard or are already to hard to use as a tortilla.

Flour tortillas, corn tortillas, and/or wheat tortillas
Nonstick cooking spray
Seasoning of your choice (optional) (I usually make my chips without seasoning, but sometimes I add a little salt, paprika, chili powder, or cayenne pepper)

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Spray with the nonstick spray on both sides.
Sprinkle on desired seasoning.
Cut through the pile of tortillas, cutting into 4 equal triangles.(I usually do stacks of 8-10 tortillas at a time) Arrange triangles in a single layer on baking sheets.
Bake for approximately 6 to 7 minutes until crisp and the edges start to curl and turn lightly brown.
Remove from the oven to cool.
I transfer the chips to a baking dish to cool so they don't continue to crisp.
