Guacamole Post

This post is in honor of some of my school friends who were talking about guacamole the other day and made me want to try it again! I've always wanted to like guacamole (not sure why) but haven't given it much of a chance. My sister, Cara, has a yummy recipe for guac so I used that and made it yesterday. My mom was over after our trip to Target and I had bought the ingredients at Wal-Mart. So I mixed us up some guacamole to go with our lunch. Neither of us were sure if we like guacamole or not but we both enjoyed it. Try it and let me know if YOU like it!!

Guacamole
4 ripe avocados (reserve 1 pit)
2 tomatoes, seeded and diced
1 medium Vidalia onion
2 small limes (or 1 large lime)
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
6 drops Tabasco sauce
1 t. salt
1/4 cup light sour cream

Chop onion and mash and peel avocados. (This part was fun! I've never worked with avocados before they are soft and mushy!) Mix together and add the lime juice. Add tomatoes and rest of ingredients except for sour cream. When thoroughly mixed, seal guacamole with a layer of sour cream and place an avocado pit on top of the dip to keep the dip from browning. (I skipped this step and just mixed the sour cream in b/c we were eating it right then). When ready to serve, remove pit and mix in sour cream. Serve with tortilla chips.

Totally agree with you and the "funk" issues. I just have had to pry myself onto the computer to even think about blogging. Maybe it's cuz there are so many other little kids things to do, books to read and tiny people in the tummies making us feel weird.?.

Anyway - love the recipes can't wait to come back from vacation and make some!!! YUM! I love Guac!!!
