Homemade Tortilla Chips in 15 minutes!

I have always loved warm tortilla chips you can get at Mexican restaurants.  Especially when you see just a little bit of oil on them still and they are salty.  I am not sure if Mexican restaurants fry or bake their chips, but I tried this simple recipe and was able to make warm baked tortilla chips.
I just used soft yellow tortillas, salt and olive oil. ( I am sure canola oil would be good as well).
I cut out the tortillas into triangles.

 

Brushed them lightly with olive oil. and salted them. ( I like mine rather salty)
I baked them at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes ( check them every few minutes)
Wa la! Here they are! These are excellent! I may never buy bagged chips again!
