Corn Tortilla Corn Chips
This Corn Tortilla Corn Chips recipe was inspired by Amelia’s Plant-Based Nutrition Certification program. Nearly all store-bought corn chips are highly processed and made with oil, and they’re not very healthy.
Organic, oil-free corn tortillas, on the other hand, have very few ingredients, are not highly processed, and contain no oil.
In addition to the health benefits, homemade corn tortilla corn chips are also a LOT cheaper! A package of Whole Foods 365 Everyday Value® Organic Corn Tortillas contains 12 tortillas and only costs between $1 and $2 depending on where you live.
That’s enough tortillas to make an entire bag of corn chips for less than a third of the cost of a pre-made bag of corn chips. And the only ingredients are Organic Whole Corn, Water and a Trace of Lime.
These corn chips are a bit thicker than most of the store bought brands, so they’re also more filling and don’t break off in your dip. Just be sure to cook them long enough or they’ll come out chewy instead of crispy, but don’t overcook them or they’ll burn.
Enjoy them with Grandpa’s Vegan Dipping Hot Sauce.

What a great idea! Thanks for all of your recipes! I am vegan and made one change in my diet and gaining some weight. I started line dancing and we all go out to eat on Fridays. The group doesn’t eat vegan or organic so we go to sport bars which actually has nothing for me. I try to find something to eat but without much success. What happens after eating out, the next day I am hungry again and I eat more. This has to stop!! Reading your easy recipes is motivating me to cook some new things.
Thanks! Glad you’re finding our recipes helpful! Eating out is definitely a challenge because they cook such unhealthy food with lots of sugar, salt and fat. That triggers our addictions and makes it harder to eat healthy at home. We have the same challenges, which is why we try to limit our eating out as much as possible and ask them to cook things without oil for us. Good luck and keep us posted!
