    This easy Guacamole with Baked Tortilla Chips is made with fresh ingredients. It is a healthy appetizer or snack.

    If you have been following me for a while, you know that I love dips and sauces. Guacamole is one of my favorite dips, and Guacamole with Baked Tortilla Chips is one of my favorite snacks.

    With the Super Bowl right around the corner, I thought it would be perfect timing for a guacamole recipe.

    This homemade guacamole has serrano peppers, but if you want less heat, you could use jalapeño instead. I love to use key limes because they have a sweeter flavor than other varieties.

    These baked tortilla chips are much healthier than fried tortilla chips, and frankly, I like them a lot better. I only added salt to enjoy the guacamole flavors, but you could spice them up by adding some cayenne and chili powder.

    Other recipes to try are my Pico de Gallo with Cucumber and my Mango Habanero Salsa Recipe.

    ❤️ Why You'll Love It

    • It is a healthy hearty snack, perfect for game day.
    • It is simple and easy to make.
    • It's made in less than 30 minutes.

    🧾 Ingredients

    Guacamole

    • Avocados
    • Lime juice: I used key lime juice, but you could use regular lime juice. I do not recommend store-bought lime juice because it contains additives.
    • Salt: Enhances flavors. I like to use sea salt.
    • Serrano pepper: Adds spice. For less spice remove the seeds and ribs or use a jalapeño.
    • Tomato: I used a Roma tomato. Use your favorite.
    • Onions: I used a yellow onion. You could also use a white onion, red onion, or
    • green onion.
    • Cilantro: To me it's not guacamole without cilantro, but I know some people don't like it. You can leave it out.

    Baked Tortilla Chips

    • Tortillas: I used corn tortillas, but since posting this found out I have a corn intolerance. You could use another type of flour tortilla. Some types will take more or less time to bake than corn tortillas.
    • Oil spray: I used coconut oil spray. You could also use olive oil or oil spray.
    • Salt: Enhances flavors. I like to use sea salt.

    To see the full list of ingredients with measurements and instructions, see the recipe card at the bottom of this post.

    📖 Variations / Additions

    • Serrano Salsa or your favorite store-bought salsa
    • Spices: cumin, chili powder, cayenne pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder
    • Fruit: pineapple, mango, or strawberries
    • Red bell pepper
    • Vegan sour cream

    Ingredients

    Guacamole

    • 3 Haas avocados
    • 2 tablespoons key lime juice
    • Salt to taste
    • 2 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons finely chopped serrano pepper
    • ½ cup chopped Roma tomato
    • 6 tablespoons chopped onion
    • 6 tablespoons cilantro

    Baked Tortilla Chips

    • Corn tortillas
    • Coconut or other oil spray
    • Salt
    US Customary - Metric

    Instructions

    Guacamole

    • Mash avocados, key lime juice, and salt together with a fork.
    • Fold in serrano pepper, tomato, onion, and cilantro.

    Baked Tortilla Chips

    • Slice tortillas into fourths.
    • Spray a parchment lined baking sheet with coconut oil spray. Place tortilla wedges on sheet. Bake at 400°F for 10-20 minutes, flipping halfway through and sprinkling salt on top.*

    Notes

    I have noticed that cooking time for tortilla chips really depends upon the thickness of your tortillas. My corn tortillas are so fresh that they are still hot from the place where I buy them.
    They are also thin and pliable - perfect for Vegan Taquitos. They take longer to cook than a lot of corn tortillas, so keep that in mind when baking your tortillas.
    The guacamole will last 3-4 days in an airtight container in the fridge. The tortilla chips will last about a week in a zip-lock baggie or an airtight container in the pantry.

        Also, I tend to eat a lot less tortilla chips when I make my own. That way I have a visual of how many I will be eating.
