Low Carb/Paleo Tortilla Chips

Yes, you read the title right.  One thing that always hangs me up on low-carb, is my love for chips and ANY kind of dip (but preferable salsa).  So I stumbled across this recipe and thought, I have all the ingredients why not try it out!  I got this from Paleo Grubs and tried it out today.

Preheat your oven to 325 degrees

Ingredients
1 cup almond flour
1 egg white
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp onion powder  ( I didn't have any of this so withheld)
1/4 tsp paprika
 
 
Throw all the ingredients in a bowl and mix together until they form a doughy ball
 

Place a piece of parchment paper on the bottom of your cookie sheet, as well as a place on top of the dough and roll out as thin as you can get it.  Then I used a pizza cutter to make triangle shapes out of the dough (fun, as I never liked geometry...how many triangles in a squarish circleish shape??)
 
Pop in the oven for 11-13 minutes (I probably let mine sit in there 15 to insure crunch) or until they are golden brown.
 
Let sit for five minutes, then pop off the tray with a spatula!
 
 
I put a chicken/bell pepper/cheese mix on mine for dinner and they were delicious.  My son, who is always super picky, even liked them!
