Low carb doritos that are easy to make and keeps your carbs low! Uses almond flour and flax seed. Crispy chip that is easy to dip into guacamole. 
 
 
Did you know “Doritos” were released in the United States in 1964? 
 
It was the first tortilla chip to be launched nationally in the USA.  In 1994, the company spent $50 million to redesign Doritos to make the chips 20% larger, 15% thinner and with rounded edges.
 
The redesign consisted of a two-year market research study that involved 5,000 chip eaters! 
 
 
 
In Jan 2012, Carol redesigned the chip into a gluten free, low carb version! Well, it took me 2 hours and a little playtime in the kitchen. 
 
I knew that the chip needed almond flour to give it that crunch. I added flax seed to provide the multigrain taste (I like that taste).  I used chili pepper spice, cumin, paprika, onion powder, and salt.
