Not a fan of these plantain chips with citrus guacamole. The chips were too greasy and the guacamole was too sour.

These plantain chips with citrus guacamole were just okay. The chips were a bit bland and the guacamole was a bit too tangy for my taste.

The plantain chips were a bit too oily for my taste, but the guacamole was delicious. I would make this again, but I would use less oil on the chips.
