I was in Publix a few days ago and walked past a sales display for Mission Tortilla chips. The display was showing as BOGO. The price, per bag, was around $3.68 so I picked two different styles of chips. I noted that the register tape showed half off for each style (instead of treating all styles of Mission chips as one). I had made some salsa at home and it was refrigerated.
I opened the Thin & Crispy bag and dipped a chip into my salsa. The chip was good! Sometimes there is a burnt aftertaste with some chips, but not with these. I finished the salsa and a day or so later made some more. I would buy these chips again. I haven’t opened the other bag yet, but hope they have a good flavor too.
I reviewed a homemade salsa ingredient list, on this site, and have left out several items but the basics are still the same:
- Diced Roasted Tomatoes (with or w/o Garlic, drained)
- Sweet Bell Pepper (diced)
- Sweet Vidalia Onion (diced)
- Chopped Raw Jalapeno Pepper
- Salsa Ranchera
- Agave Nectar
- Splenda
- Lime Juice
- Red Wine Vinegar
- Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
- Cayenne Pepper (ground)
After I have assembled the above ingredients, I run them through the chopper, but still leave the salsa a little chunky. Refrigerate.
