How to Make Homemade Tortilla Chips
You only need four ingredients, a few simple steps, and about half an hour in order to make these crispy cheesy flavored chips!
- Start by preheating the oven to 425°F and spray your baking sheet with non-stick spray.
- Cut tortillas into wedges, and then place them on the baking sheet in a single layer.
- Sprinkle the tortillas with Parmesan cheese and garlic salt.
- Bake for about 10-15 minutes (until crispy). You can broil for a couple of minutes if you want them EXTRA crispy.
Tips for making Homemade Baked Tortilla Chips
- We love BAKED Tortilla Chips using flour tortillas, but you can also fry your homemade tortilla chips.
- You can use corn or flour tortillas, although we wrote this recipe with flour tortillas
- QUICK TIP: Using Corn Tortillas can make this a Gluten Free Recipe!
- If frying, you can sprinkle on your seasoning after removing from the oil, before the hot chips have dried.
- If baking, we recommend spraying all the tortilla triangles with nonstick olive oil spray, sprinkling with your seasonings (in this case garlic salt and shredded parmesan) and then baking until crisp.
These Baked Tortilla Chips are SO EASY and use only 4 INGREDIENTS. This is a fool-proof way to have the ultimate tail g ate party or Cinco de Mayo celebration!
Are Homemade Tortilla Chips good for you?
Typically, fried tortilla chips are pretty high in fat…because you’re frying in oil. These Baked Tortilla Chips have under 100 calories per serving and are still crispy and delicious! I’m a big fan and I hope you love them too.
How do you make Nachos in the oven?
I LOVE to bake nachos! You can start with this Homemade Tortilla Chip Recipe and then make Baked Nachos super easily. They’re the BEST! We love these Baked Chicken Nachos on a Sheet Pan and also these Baked Foil Packet Nachos! Both are awesome and easy recipes.
Can you make Baked Tortilla Chips in other flavors?
YES! One of our favorite Cinco de Mayo Recipes on The Cookie Rookie is our Tequila Lime Baked Tortilla Chips ! Love that unique, fun, and bright flavor combination.
Tortilla Chips Need Dips
Sure, these garlic parmesan tortilla chips taste great on their own, but chips are really here for dip. We need ALL the dips. Salsas, cheese dips, guac, you name it. Here are some of my favorite dips for these chips.

This Essential Grocery List is an absolute life saver for my family on the busy weeks. When I started this journey to learn how to cook, I quickly realized that the first step in cooking is having staple ingredients on hand. I want to avoid having to run out to the grocery store every single time I prepare a new recipe. Having a well-stocked pantry has made my life in the kitchen so much simpler, because when it’s time to cook, I have what I need.
Essential Grocery List
It’s so helpful to have a basic grocery list to help me remember which foods to buy at the store. This food shopping list is my go-to!
It’s better to stock up on things like grains, seasonings and spices, baking essentials, oils, condiments, canned and frozen foods, etc. so I can just grab them when I need them. These things have a long shelf life , so I keep them in my kitchen for convenience.
However, I do have to go to the supermarket sometimes, and there’s a way to make that trip easy and hassle-free: I keep a grocery list! If I go in blindly, I’ll leave with things I don’t need, and nothing that actually helps me prepare a good meal.
In the list below, I’ve compiled everything I always have on my stock-up grocery list.
I’ve got you covered! I created an easy grocery list filled with all of the essentials. Plus there’s a free printable version that you can take with you to the grocery store. It has everything you need to stock your pantry, your freezer, and your refrigerator.

What to Buy at the Grocery Store
This is the perfect grocery list filled with all the basics and essentials. It should help get you going if you’re new to cooking, or if you’re just left staring helplessly at an empty pantry and don’t know how to fill it.
When I first started cooking, things could seem overwhelming. I quickly realized that they more prepared I could be, the more confident I felt. If you already have the basics in your kitchen, then you can shop stress-free.
So print out our easy grocery list, stock up your pantry and fridge, and you’ll be cooking in no time!
