Simply spray a low calorie tortilla wrap with some low calorie cooking spray, sprinkle paprika and sea salt on both sides and then cut into tortilla chip shapes. Spread on a greased baking tray and bake for around 5 – 7 minutes in a 180°C oven, turning once halfway through.

Hi, this looks amazing. Could you refrigerate the meat mix without nachos overnight?

    SharonWednesday 24th February 2021

    Hi Amy, so glad you like the look of this recipe. Yes, you could make the meat mixture and refrigerate it overnight.You could add a few tablespoons of water and reheat it in a covered pan, over a low heat until piping hot throughout, before proceeding with the rest of the instructions.Hope you enjoy the recipe!
