How Can You Reuse Stale Tortilla Chips

 Stale tortilla chips can still be used in a variety of ways, rather than throwing them away. Here are some ways to reuse stale tortilla chips:


Make tortilla chip nachos: Arrange the stale tortilla chips on a baking sheet, add shredded cheese, diced tomatoes, jalapeños, and bake in the oven until the cheese is melted. Top with sour cream, guacamole, and enjoy.




Make tortilla chip crusted chicken: Crush the stale tortilla chips into small pieces, coat chicken breasts in egg wash, and then in the tortilla chip crumbs. Bake in the oven until the chicken is cooked through.




Use them as a salad topping: Crush the stale tortilla chips into small pieces and sprinkle them over your favorite salad for added crunch.




Make a crunchy coating for fish or shrimp: Crush the stale tortilla chips into small pieces and use them as a coating for fish or shrimp before baking or frying.




Use them in a breakfast casserole: Crush the stale tortilla chips and mix them with scrambled eggs, cheese, sausage or bacon, and bake in the oven for a hearty breakfast.




Make a tortilla chip crust for a quiche: Crush the stale tortilla chips and mix with melted butter. Press the mixture into a pie dish and bake for a few minutes. Then, add your favorite quiche filling and bake until set.




With these ideas, you can give your stale tortilla chips a new life and avoid wasting food.
