  • 12 Tbsp. olive oil, plus extra for greasing pans
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • Fresh ground black pepper

Guacamole

  • 3 medium ripe avocados
  • 1/4 cup cooked sweet corn
  • 1/4 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 medium tomato, seeded and chopped
  • 2 large jalapeno peppers, seeded and finely chopped

  • 1/2 tsp. ground cumin
  • 3 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
  • 4 bacon strips, cooked, cooled, and crumbled or finely chopped

Instructions

Potatoes

  1. Place the oven rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
  2. Line two rimmed baking sheets with aluminum foil, drizzle lightly with olive oil, and distribute evenly using a pastry brush.
  3. Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on the oiled baking sheets, then brush tops with 1-2 Tablespoons of olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and fresh ground black pepper, to taste.
  4. Bake 15 -18 minutes. Potatoes will be soft, wrinkly, and golden brown on the bottom. Remove from the oven and allow to cool just slightly.

Guacamole

  2. Add corn, beans, red onion, tomato, jalapeno, cilantro, cumin, and lime juice to the bowl. Fold in the bacon. Season with salt and fresh ground black pepper, to taste.
  3. Top each potato slice with dollop of guacamole and serve immediately.
