A Women's RV Forum run by Women RVer's!

Just got this off Pinterest the other day and made it Friday evening for a tasty snack. Took tortillas and cut them in strips. I actually took my kitchen scissors and cut the stack of 3 tortillas into strips. then had a cookie sheet lined with tinfoil. dipped the strips in melted butter and laid them on the cook sheet and sprinkled with cinnamon/sugar. Baked in oven at 350 for about 10 minutes. Very easy and quite tasty. Have no idea what the calories are, food value or anything like that.

Sounds yummy! And I'm surprised Mitch hasen't researched and posted those numbers yet! carold

I had to laugh - after reading the post, I was wondering how I could calculate the numbers. Decided I couldn't. Then I saw your post, Carol!!!

Make sure you use flour tortillas! And also good - but not as healthy - is coating the tortilla in cinamon and sugar, then frying them - oh God, just like at the carnivals, etc - I won't do that because I hate the grease splatter, but Jean used to make them all the time and always was nice and would bring me one.

Almost as good is baking them - have done that for years - whole and cut up - tasty, for sure.

My mom used to do that with extra pie crust -

what memories you brought up! My mom made her pie crust and always managed to have some left over to bake strips for us kids. I think she just sprinkled sugar on them. But so tasty.

These remind me a bit (taste wise) of those cinnamon pastries at Taco Villa (churros?) Another way to do this and have a flaky cinnamon goodie is to use the frozen puff pastry dough cut in strips.

Pastry is my weakness!

Ah Ha! NOW you're talking. I can make anything as long as it starts out pre made and frozen. carold
