Guacamole – The Quick and The Easy

Guacamole is one of my favorite dips to make for a party. It is so easy to prepare and everyone likes it, too. Those are, of course, the winning factors for any entertaining. If you have ever spent five hours in the kitchen preparing and cooking for your guests you know what I mean. So, it’s nice to have some recipes that don’t require a diploma from the French Culinary Institute and that will still bring those smiles and empty plates.

Also, for all the health conscience out there, avocados are extremely nutritious and very good for your brain synapses. Actually making it easier for your brain functions and thoughts to be processed faster. You can’t beat that.

Here I have prepared two recipes they are very similar but the prep time gets even shorter for ease.

The Easy

2 cups avocado, mashed

2/3 cup of your favorite salsa

1 1/2 tsp. ground cumin

1 tsp. salt – I prefer Kosher salt

1/2 lime or lemon juice, freshly squeezed

Peal the avocado and remove the pit. Place the fruit of the avocado in a bowl and mash. I usually just use a fork, it works really well. As long as your avocado is ripe it will mash very easily. Next add the salsa, cumin,salt and lime / lemon. Mix well. Place in your serving dish.

I think that it actually tastes even better if you give it about ten or fifteen minutes to let the flavors meld together. However, it is still perfectly delicious to eat right away. Serve with tortilla chips or use as a a lovely accompaniment with grilled chicken.

The Quick

2 cups avocado , mashed

2/3 cup tomato, chopped

1/2 tsp. jalapeño, finely chopped – You can add more if you like more spicy heat

2 tbsp. onion, finely chopped

1 1/2 tsp. ground cumin

1 tsp. salt

1/2 lime or lemon juice, freshly squeezed

Peal the avocado and remove the pit. Place the fruit of the avocado in a bowl and mash. I usually just use a fork, it works really well. As long as your avocado is ripe it will mash very easily. Next add the chopped tomato, jalapeño, onion, cumin, salt, and lime or lemon juice. Mix well. ( Again, you can let it set for a few minutes if you like.) Serve.
