INSTRUCTIONS
Halve and peel the avocado and cut into chunks. Place in a blender
with the cottage cheese, lime juice, chives, and red pepper flakes;
blend to the desired consistency. Refrigerate the guacamole 2 hours.
Just before serving, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Brush the
tortillas lightly with oil. Cut each tortilla into 8 triangles and
place on a baking sheet. Bake the tortilla triangles 5 to 6 minutes,
or until browned and crisp. If the tortillas begin to curl, lay
another baking sheet on top of them. Line a serving bowl with lettuce
leaves and mound the guacamole on top. Serve with the tortilla chips
and raw vegetables. Makes 8 servings. Nutritional information per
