Chips

  • Cut each of the tortillas into at least 8 wedges, which will be the shape of the chips.

  • You can either dip the tortilla wedges briefly in the mixture, or brush it on them lightly.
  • Arrange in a single layer on a cookie sheet, and bake for about 2 minutes.
  • Turn over and bake for another 2 or 3 minutes, until golden brown and crisp.

Guacamole

  • Lightly mash the avocado flesh in a medium sized bowl.
  • Chop the tomatoes, and add them to the avocado along with the jalapeno pepper, cilantro, garlic, red pepper flakes, onion and salt.
  • Stir to combine, and adjust seasoning if necessary.
  • Cut the grapefruit in half. Juice one half, and add the juice to the avocado mixture.
  • Using a sharp knife, cut into the membrane of the other half of the grapefruit over a bowl to release the flesh. Roughly chop the flesh and stir it into the guacamole.
