{recipe} Rockin’ Guac

Now that we've hit football season {yay!} I know serving up lots of great appetizers is on the horizon.  Hubs and I like to usually do appetizers for dinner on Saturday nights with the kids since we're all usually watching college football.  And, no doubt that guacamole is one of our go-to apps.  

The other day I was at Sam's Club purchasing a few things and I happened to sample this guacamole and instantly loved it!  Even better is that the kids loved it and asked me to make it.  So a few days later I made it to go along with our smoked brisket dinner.  I hope you'll enjoy making it for your friends and family soon too!  The recipe is super simple but takes your average guacamole up just a notch.

Rockin' Guac

What you need:

3 ripe avocados, mashed

1 can (10 oz) diced tomatoes and green chiles, drained {Ro-Tel is a great brand but I have also used Super Target's Market Pantry brand and they are just as good but cheaper!}

1/2 cup onion, chopped

1 Tbsp. lime juice {can sub lemon}

salt & black pepper, to taste

chopped cilantro {optional}

What to do:

Mix the avocados, drained tomatoes, onion, lime or lemon juice, and salt until well blended.  Then, mix in cilantro {if you're using it} and black pepper.  Enjoy!

Tip:  Keep one of the pits inside the guacamole bowl and cover tightly and refrigerate until ready to eat.  The pit will help keep the guacamole from turning brown.
