Mini Ham Tortillas with Mango Chutney

Want a little something for your snacking pleasure? Bite into this!

I have these HUGE multi grain tortillas that cost me 215 calories to eat. I haven't been eating them. When I do, I usually have a half, but then it looks like a half. I want it to look like a whole, while I make my body a half. Did you follow that?

So out with the wine glass to indent a perfect little circle inside the big circle. It made quite a few. The little scraps I will toast up and sprinkle on some soup or salad. No waste.

Anyway, sprinkle these little tastey bites with some shaved ham and top with a smidge of mango chutney.

MANGO CHUTNEY
Loris Lipsmacking Goodness

6 cups mango, chopped
1 1/2 cups onion, chopped
4 cloves of garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried hot pepper flakes
1 cup distilled vinegar
2 cups ganulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons garam masala
1/2 teaspoon light colored mustard seeds

Stir the sugar into the vinegar and heat in a sauce pan until the sugar has dissolved. Add the remainder of the ingredients and cook over medium heat ( a slow simmer) uncovered until the mixture has dissolved. Stir occassionally, especially towards the end. When the mixture has thickened, it has finished cooking.
