Syn Free Doritos

Place some dried lasagne sheets in a bowl of boiling water to soften.

Remove and dry, cut into triangles.

Spray a baking sheet with frylight and place triangles on, coat with desired seasoning, ie Salt & Pepper, Spicy, etc

Place in a very hot oven - watch very carefully - when then expand and become very slightly brown, remove and allow to cool (they do burn exceptionally fast). Eat on own or with homemade syn free dips
