Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 limes , juiced
2 small avocados , peeled and chopped
1 bunch coriander , finely chopped
½ a 160g can sweetcorn
200g cherry tomatoes , quartered
1 red pepper , finely chopped
2 spring onions , thinly sliced
3 sundried tomatoes , finely chopped
400g can black beans
½ tsp cumin
½ tsp coriander
½ tsp smoked paprika
4 wholewheat tortillas
1 ½ tsp oil
4 purple carrots , cut into sticks

Steps:

  • Start by making the guacamole. Pour the lime juice into a bowl and add the avocado. Mash well with a potato masher or the back of a fork until it's the consistency you like - we served ours fairly chunky. Add half of the chopped coriander, season to taste and spoon into a shallow bowl or serving dish.
  • Now mix all of the salsa ingredients together, along with the remaining chopped coriander. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange clumps of the salsa on top of the guacamole - this will allow guests to get a bit of everything with each scoop. Cover and chill for up to 30 mins while you make the bat nachos.
  • Lay a tortilla wrap out on your chopping board and brush with a little of the oil. Cut out bats (or other spooky shapes) using a cookie cutter, scissors or both. Cut them as close together as possible to minimise waste. You should be able to get about 8-10 from each wrap, depending on the size of your cutter.
  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put all the tortilla shapes on 2 or 3 large baking sheets and bake for about 4-5 mins or until golden and crisp, then serve with the carrot sticks, guacamole and salsa plate.
