Ingredients
- 5 large avocados, pits removed
- ⅓ cup red onion, finely diced
- ⅓ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- ¼ cup pickled jalapeno peppers, diced
- ¼ cup sliced green onions
- 2 tablespoons chunky salsa
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- ½ teaspoon Slap Ya Mama® seasoning
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 20 flour tortillas, each tortilla cut into 6 triangles (We used MIssion super soft fajitas size)

Instructions
- Slice avocados in half, remove the pits, and place in a large bowl.
- Add diced onions, cilantro, jalapenos, green onions, salsa, lime juice, and seasonings.
- Mash with a fork until desired consistency is obtained.
- Place in the refrigerator with a piece of plastic wrap laid on top of the guacamole to keep the air out. This helps the guac stay green until ready to use.
- In a deep drying pan, heat oil over medium high heat.
- Add about 6-8 triangles at a time into the hot oil.
- Deep fry until golden brown on both sides.
- Remove and place on a baking sheet lined with paper towels to absorb the excess oil.
