I'll tell you what's for supper: chips, guacamole, and an evening with the Detroit Tigers! Well okay, I have to do homework while I watch, but it's better than no Tiger baseball!
I don't usually eat much for supper, preferring to eat my larger meals earlier in the day so I'm not going to bed on a full stomach. A snack like this is just right. Tonight is the third game of the American League playoffs and Justin Verlander is pitching, so I got out my glass holiday dish and made my favorite guacamole recipe to put in it. Sweet husband's little smile when he saw it prompted me to say, "Do you think I should save it for the World Series?" No, he thinks it's fine.
Here's my yummy guacamole recipe:
Two ripe avocados
Juice of one lemon
1 tablespoon chunky salsa
Large dash of onion powder
Large dash of garlic powder
Salt to taste, try a scant 1/2 teaspoon
Mash the avocado, add other ingredients and mash together well. Serve with your favorite tortilla chips. And don't forget to say a little cheer for my Tigers.
you never make guacamole when i'm around *pout* :p what brand of salsa do you use? it sounds pretty quick to make. i might need to double the recipe ;) we LOVE guacamole!
ReplyDeletego tigers!!!
I used Pace chunky salsa, medium. My recipe actually called for diced tomatoes, but I left those out and used the chunky salsa for a little extra zip. Either would be good though. If you like something spicier, use hot salsa instead of medium--I'm sure my guy would like that, but I can't handle hot. :-)
ReplyDeleteI'll be trying your recipe, for sure! Since moving to Montana from California, Mexican food is hard to come by.
ReplyDeleteSounds great...I prefer to use home made salsa when the ingredients are available. But living in Ohio that is not very long.
