Salsa

    Dice the tomatoes, finely chop the red onion, and mince the jalapeño. Chop the fresh cilantro.

    Mix the Salsa

    In a large bowl, combine diced tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, minced jalapeño, lime juice, and salt. Stir gently until well mixed.

    Chill the Salsa

    Cover the salsa with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

    Using a fork or potato masher, mash the avocados to your desired level of creaminess.

  3. 6

    Mix the Guacamole

    Cover and Chill

    Cover with plastic wrap directly on the surface of the guacamole to prevent browning and refrigerate until ready to serve.

    Cube the Velveeta cheese and soften the cream cheese. Open the can of diced tomatoes with green chilies and set aside.

  2. 9

    Prepare the Tortillas

    Cut each corn tortilla into six wedges.

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot or deep frying pan, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  3. 14

    Fry the Chips

    Fry the tortilla wedges in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
