    My Little Chef, Samantha, was experimenting in the kitchen last week and she came up with these....They are like Doritos, but better and better for you!

    I told her what to do...SHE told me I was wrong...I let her have at it and darn it if she wasn't right!
    She's always right about what toe polish too!!  When we leave the nail salon, I always like hers better, lol...How does this happen at 10-year old?

    These were delicious...and SO easy.  SOOO much better than store-bought! Such a fun activity that doubles as a cooking lesson, craft and a snack all-in-one!

    Check out Samantha's recipe for Homemade Doritos!!  Enjoy!

      Doritos are one of my secret (okay, not so secret now) obsessions, but I try to stay away from them because they're so bad for you. Please thank your little chef for this idea!

      Whoa. I live in Germany and I know a lot of expats who would love to make these. Sending on this recipe! (and I guess their parents will just have to send them the seasoning ;))

      Kids always know better than us, don't they? I hate that and secretly love it all at the same time. What a great idea for a healthier snack chip.
