The only regret you’ll have with this genius appetizer recipe is that you didn’t make enough. These alluring blue tortilla bites are as delectable as they are pretty, making them a unanimous crowd pleaser. The avocado feta cream is magic and I frequently serve it with quesadillas as well. As for the intriguing blue corn chips – yes blue corn does exist, they didn’t just put food coloring 🙂 – they have high protein content and slightly less starch than their yellow and white counterparts, making them a little bit more nutritious. They’re easy to find in North America and to my delight, have popped up on mainstream Dubai supermarket shelves this year.
