TIPS:

  • Try ham and cheddar cheese for another great taste.

  • Replace fresh cilantro with 1 tbsp (15 mL) dried cilantro leaves.

  • For a delicious snack or cracker to serve with dips, brush your favourite DEMPSTER’S Tortilla with melted butter. Poke holes in it with a fork to avoid puffing. Sprinkle with Tex-Mex seasoning and bake at 450°F (230°C) about 6 minutes or until crisp. Cool and break into pieces.
