A couple of months ago I was hanging out with a friend of mine and decided we wanted a snack so she offered to make guacamole. Now, I am not a guacamole fan. I've tried the stuff a number of times and have never been all that impressed with the green gloop. However, this stuff she made was AMAZING!
Recipe:
One avocado - cut it like you see in the picture then scoop out the green stuff. Mash.
About a quarter of a cup each of chopped tomatoes and onions. (more or less to your taste preference).
The juice of 1 lime (I'm a big lime fan- if you're not you may just want to use half a lime)
1 tsp cilantro
Salt and Pepper to taste.
Mix.
Get a tortilla chip. Scoop. Eat. Yum!
It has a very...unique? Powerful? taste. I love it though. It also refrigerates well. (Though I have no idea for how long as it usually doesn't last more than two days around here.)
Oooh...I made this last spring for the first time and it's very yummy, but a huge pain and I now understand why restaurants charge extra for it. :P
ReplyDeleteI used to like guacamole but then I got sick. Since then I haven't liked it. I may have to try it again after I have the baby. Your recipe does sound good.
ReplyDeleteGuacamole is our favorite food to make together! It sounds like we make it the exact same way too! Oh I could eat it forever. :) I'm glad you are enjoying the gift of God that is avocados. :)
ReplyDeletemy avocado is hard as a rock. *sobs*
ReplyDeleteSo last week I finally had an avocado, a tomato, and some pitas all at the same time, which meant I could finally try this recipe!! So exciting. It was delicious. I skipped the onions, substituted the cilantro with parsley, and used lemon juice instead of lime. The boy and I enjoyed it a lot. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteooh - the parsley/lemon combo sounds good. I'll have to try that one day! Glad you enjoyed it :)
