Halloween Witch Chips and Guacamole
This is so quick and easy to make! Here is what you will need to create this adorable treat:
- Avocados
- Garlic
- Roma Tomatoes
- Onion
- Lime Juice
- Cilantro
- Jalapeno
- Blue Corn Tortilla Chips
- Black Olives
- Red Bell Pepper
- Carrot Sticks
First, whip up your batch of guacamole. I used five avocados and mashed them in a large bowl with a potato masher. You can also mash them up with a pastry blender or fork. Then, I added the garlic, Roma tomatoes, onion, lime juice, cilantro and jalapeño and stirred until well combined. After the guacamole was made, I put it on a large plate in the shape of a face. I made the "chin" pointy to make it look like a witch.
Then, just assemble the witch. I used a black olive cut in half for the eyes, a slice of avocado for the nose, and a strip of red bell pepper for the mouth. Carrot sticks were arranged on both sides for the hair and blue corn tortilla chips were placed on top in the shape of a witch's hat. There you have it, Halloween Witch Chips and Guacamole!
What else can I use for the witch?
Get creative! Just about any veggies could be used to assemble the witch. Green bell pepper strips could be used for the hair or mouth. Would you like a witch with curly hair? Why not try broccoli on the side or zucchini noodles?
