My Not-Yet-Famous Guacamole

  I don't know about you, but our family enjoys Mexican food year-round. Guacamole is one of our all-time favourite things to eat. My husband loves it so much that he keeps telling me I need to package & sell it! Well, instead, I'm going to share my not-yet-famous recipe with you. This is totally my own creation.



Steph's Not-Yet-Famous Guacamole

3 peeled, mashed ripe avocados 
2 Tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro (or 1 tbsp dried parsley)
2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice (juice of 2 small limes)
1 1/2 tsp. hot sauce
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1/2 tsp. garlic powder

Mix it all together. It's best if you can let it sit for a couple of hours to let the flavours mingle, but you can serve immediately too. 

Serve with chips, veggies, or nachos.

We like our guacamole chunky so I don't over mash the avocados, but if like yours smooth, you could puree it. 

Tip: If you buy hard avocados & need them to ripen quickly, put them in a paper bag on your kitchen counter & they will ripen in half the time!

What kind of food do you eat year-round? Any family favourites that never get old? Please share!

Enjoy your day!
