This is awesome! I love that there is no oil; my family is trying to cut out extra fats and oils without sacrificing taste. Even my 12yr old loves these and she hates everything! (Pair this with homemade salsa and you'll get; low fat, high fiber, 1 serving of vegetables, and tons of vitamin C from the tomatoes.) -
