1/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Place chips on serving plate. Spoon beef filling into each chip and top with cheese and a dollop of guacamole or sour cream. Add sliced olives and diced tomoatoes if desired.

Callie's Guacamole


2 avacodos
one tomato cut up
a little bit of onion
a blob of sour cream
garlic salt
lime juice
lemon juice

I kind of just do it all to taste if you have the desire to make fresh salsa that is good in there in place of the tomato and onion. I found out that if you leave the pit from the avocado in with the already made guacamole that it doesn't go brown as fast!
