Ingredients
  

  • 1 Tortillas use your favorite kid:flour, corn, or whole wheat
  • 1 Olive Oil Spray you can drizzle olive oil on as well
  • 2 Ripe Avocados for larger parties
  • 1 Lemon or lime
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
  • 1 cup Cherry Tomatoes finely chopped
  • ¼ cup Red Onion finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro chopped

Instructions
 

  • Cutting the Tortilla Trees
    Begin by grabbing your favorite tortillas and a Christmas tree-shaped cookie cutter. Cut as many trees as possible and arrange them neatly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This step sets the stage for a festive and creative appetizer.
    2. Bake the Chips
    Lightly spray your tortilla trees with olive oil for that golden, crispy finish. Bake them at 350°F for 12-15 minutes. Once done, let them cool completely to avoid any sogginess when adding the toppings.
    3. Prepare the Avocado Mash
    While the chips are baking, get your avocados ready. Mash them to creamy perfection with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, salt, and pepper. This guacamole base adds a creamy, tangy contrast to the crispy chips.
    4. Top Your Avocado Christmas Trees with Colorful Ingredients
    Once your chips are ready and your avocado mash is smooth, it’s time for the fun part: assembling! Sprinkle chopped cherry tomatoes, red onion, and cilantro over each tree for a pop of holiday color and fresh flavor. These toppings elevate the look and taste of the dish, making it a standout addition to your table.
    Serve and Enjoy!
    Your Christmas tree tortilla chips are now ready to shine at any holiday party. Serve them fresh and watch as your guests marvel at both the presentation and taste of this festive snack.
