These are so tasty and have a great texture. The salsa makes them taste really fresh and I love that they're baked instead of fried.

This sensational salsa is a colorful combination of lots of fresh-tasting flavors. My husband, son and I think it's great as a dip or with main-dish burritos or chimichangas. We love taste-testing my creations together.
