Vegan Guacamole with Homemade Tortilla Chips
Guacamole: the creamy, green icon that turns every snack into a lifestyle statement. And no, store-bought mush won’t cut it here. This one’s fresh, zesty, and bold—because your taste buds deserve actual flavor, not sadness in a tub. Paired with crispy, golden tortilla chips you baked (look at you, being domestic), this combo delivers more satisfaction than your last relationship. Avocados bring the richness, lime adds sass, and the chips? Crunch with commitment. It’s ridiculously easy, unapologetically delicious, and way cheaper than therapy. Warning: sharing may lead to emotional conflict. Proceed with chips and confidence.
Vegan Guacamole with Homemade Tortilla Chips
Zesty guacamole loaded with fresh ingredients, served with perfectly crisp, homemade tortilla chips that scream “don’t you dare double dip.”
Ingredients
For the Guacamole:
- 3 ripe avocados
- 1 small red onion finely chopped
- 1 medium tomato diced
- 1 garlic clove minced
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- Juice of 1 lime
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

For the Tortilla Chips:
- 6 small corn tortillas
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F so your tortilla chips get the glow-up they deserve.
- Slice tortillas into triangle-shaped destiny—cut each into 6 pieces.
- Lightly brush each chip with olive oil, because dry snacks are a crime.
- Lay them on a baking sheet and sprinkle with salt like you mean it.
- Bake for 10 minutes or until golden, flipping halfway for that evenly toasted flex.
- While chips bake, halve avocados and scoop them into a bowl like a pro.
- Mash avocados with a fork—chunky, not baby food, unless you’re five.
- Stir in chopped onion, tomato, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper.
- Mix until it looks like something you’d proudly serve without apology.
- Taste and adjust salt or lime if your soul demands more.
