jalapeno peppers, and minced garlic.
Stir in the sour cream, milk, mayonnaise or salad dressing, lemon

Oven-Crisp Tortilla Chips: Here's an easy way to make your own
tortilla chips without frying them. Cut flour tortillas into wedges
with kitchen shears or a knife. Place the wedges on an ungreased
baking sheet and toast in a 350F oven for 10 to 12 minutes or till
dry and crisp. You'll find they're sturdy for dipping, there's no
messy cleanup, and the chips are lower in calories than those you buy
in the store.

The History of Recipes
Written recipes as an idea can be tracked far back into distant history, in truth as far into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and maybe further still. In practice though, mostly, these old cookbooks were just basic pictorial recipes for meal preparation.
Continuing our culinary historical journey, we find two interesting recipe books published in the 14th Century - a cookery book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, these are unconnected to the spicy food that is served today, but rather recipes for the types of meals prepared by the chefs of the rich people of that period. When we get to the twentieth century, cookbooks are starting to become popular as a result of better eduction, people having more leisure time and having more disposable income. |
We hope you enjoy this Avocado Chicken Dip recipe.
