Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Using a sharp knife or bat-shaped cookie cutter, cut 6 large black bean tortillas into bat shapes approximately 3 inches wide.
Step 2: Arrange the bat-shaped tortillas in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Brush both sides lightly with 2 tbsp olive oil and sprinkle evenly with 1 tsp kosher salt.
Step 3: Bake for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chips are crisp and edges are slightly browned.
Step 4: While chips bake, prepare the avocado lime dip: In a medium bowl, mash 2 medium ripe avocados until smooth.
Step 5: Stir in 2 tbsp fresh lime juice, 2 tbsp chopped cilantro leaves, 1 minced garlic clove, 1 small seeded and chopped jalapeño pepper, and 1/2 tsp salt until well combined and creamy.
Step 6: Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and let the chips cool slightly before serving alongside the creamy avocado lime dip for dipping.
