Instructions
-
Cut avocados lengthwise, then make checkered markings in the flesh without piercing the skin; use a large spoon to remove pieces in one sweep and put into a large bowl. Mash with fork and add all the lime juice. Leave 2 to 3 avocado pits in the puree to keep from browning and
set aside. - Prep all other ingredient as listed, then add the jalapeno, cilantro, tomatoes, garlic, onions, salt and pepper as well as Becel Olive Plus™ Oil Blend.
-
To make the Chips, cut the tortillas in triangles and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush with Becel® with Avocado Oil margarine and egg yolk mixture. Sprinkle with parsley, salt, pepper, cayenne, paprika
and sesame seeds and bake in the oven at
400° F (200°C) for 10 minutes or until golden. Serve with
guacamole dip.
