Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Roll up the tortillas and, with a sharp knife, cut them into 1/2-inch (1.25cm) strips onto a parchment paper-lined baking tray.
  3. Spray with vegetable or canola oil and give a quick toss to ensure the tortillas are evenly coated with oil.
  4. Sprinkle with salt.
  5. Bake at 375°F (190 °C) for 5 minutes, then rotate the pan and bake for another 5 minutes.
  6. Prepare the salad by tossing all the prepared ingredients together with the salad dressing into a large mixing bowl.
