Meet my newest love:

daphne-brissonnet-avacado

the avacado

I have never liked avacado or guacamole until…..this past Thanksgiving. Mick’s mom made the most wonderful guacamole; it wasn’t the soupy green stuff that I have seen in restaurants; it was chunky with tomatoes and lots of flavor! I was hooked.

Now, I eat avacado and cheese as a snack; I like avacado in my salads; and I love guacamole – but only this homemade version with Donna’s recipe!

There is no strict recipe for her guacamole – it is made “to taste” – the general recipe:

4 somewhat soft – but not real soft avacados – not mashed; just sort of broken up into chunks

2 chopped tomatoes

chopped jalepeno

garlic powder

salt

lime juice

    Oh, I love avocado and guacamole! We’re having tacos tonight for dinner with guacamole. I just checked a few minutes ago to see if my avocados were ripe enough!

    I like to make my own too. And I like it chunky! I use fresh garlic and canned tomatoes or salsa (jar or homemade, which ever I have at the time.) I also add cilantro–but I am thinking that you aren’t a fan of cilantro from a previous post??
