Nothing makes me happier than seeing better food options become mainstream & Boundless have done just that. I took their activated chips & made this insanely delicious, crispy, light, flavourful baked fish tacos.

The proof is in the eating, that crunch has nothing to do with frying, it's all in the chip crumb.
