Ingredients

  • Plain or butter-flavored vegetable-oil cooking spray
  • 24 assorted large flour tortillas, such as plain, whole wheat, and sun-dried tomato
  • Coarse salt
  • 3 pounds ripe Hass avocados, (about 7), pitted. peeled, and cut into chunks
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice, (about 3 limes)
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • 1 fresh jalapeno chile, seeded and finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, leaves

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray. Using a few Halloween inspired cookie cutters, cut shapes from tortillas. Arrange as many shapes as can fit in a single layer on oiled sheet. Coat tortillas with cooking spray, and season with salt. Bake until slightly darkened and crisp, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Repeat with remaining tortilla shapes, using a clean, cooled baking sheet.
  2. Put avocados, lime juice, 11/2 teaspoons salt and the pepper, jalapeno, and cilantro in a large bowl. Mash with a fork until chunky. Serve with chips.
