For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of garlic powder to the chip mixture. If you don't have ranch-flavored chips, plain tortilla chips work well too! Just add a teaspoon of ranch seasoning to the chip mixture. Serve with a side of fresh salsa, avocado slices, and a squeeze of lime for a complete meal.
