Last Minute Super Bowl Snacks!

February 1, 2015: Champaign, IL.  One day I will eat something other than guacamole, but the Super Bowl is definitely not the day to start!  Today I also made my own baked tortilla chips, which turned out very good and healthy since they are not fried.  I hope everyone is having a great sunday!
Recipe

2 ripe avocados
1 small yellow onion
1/2 lemon or lime
1 TBS minced garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste

Start by cutting and peeling both avocados and mushing them up in a bowl.  Chop the onion, mince the garlic, and then add the rest of the ingredients to the avocado and combine with a fork.  When making in advanced, keep the nut from inside of the avocado and place it in the center of the guacamole to keep it fresh. 

1 pack of Whole Grain Tortillas
Spray bottle of olive oil

Preheat the oven 375 degrees.  Spray both sides of the tortillas lightly with olive oil, and then cut them like a pizza into triangles.  Place in a single layer on a cookie sheet and bake for 10 minutes, flip each chip over and cook for 3-5 more minutes depending on the strength of your oven.  You definitely need to watch these to make sure they don't burn, a dark golden brown color is ideal.
