Welcome to this new series, where I will be sharing my
food with you!
It is no secret that my phone memory is loaded with pictures
of food - food I cooked, or bought - and did absolutely nothing with. A few months
ago, I stumbled on an X post asking people to share their monthly dump (JPEGs),
but make it food. I gladly added a few of mine. Someone asked if I had a food
blog, and I said no, but it got me thinking.
I have always wanted to have a food blog but did not think I
had the time. Truth is, I still don't have the time, but sometimes, you just have
to make it happen, especially if it is important to you. So, here is my attempt
at doing just that!
I am so glad to share this here with you, and I hope it
turns out even better than I imagine it.
For this first post, it's not a full meal - it is more of a
snack that I totally enjoyed. Guacamole is something I will always love, and it
is surprising that this is my first attempt at making it.
Without missing a beat, let’s get right into it!
This is a one-bowl dish (hallelujah, somebody!) that will
have you cleaning the plate before you know it.
Ingredients:
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1 ripe tomatoe – finely diced
- 1 small bulb of onion- finely diced
- Pepper flakes or cayenne pepper (to taste)
- Salt (to taste)
- A slice of lime or lemon
Method:
- Cut open the avocado and remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash with a fork.
- Add the diced tomato, onion, salt, and pepper. The salt and pepper give it a kick, so use as much or little as your heart desires.
- Squeeze the lime or lemon over the mixture.
- Mix well until combined.
Your guacamole is ready!
I paired mine with some plantain chips and ended up with the
most delicious snack! I also saved some to add to my dinner or rice and beans.
Will you be trying this? Let me know how you plan to pair
yours!
