I love avocados. Whenever they go on sale I buy a bunch and make some guacamole. This time I used the recipe in the Barefoot Contessa cookbook as a guide. Very basic ingredients- avocados, red onions, tomatoes, garlic, lemon, salt, pepper and tabasco sauce. I didn't have any tabasco or lemon, but it was still so yummy. Don't let the small portion on a plate fool you, that's just for the picture. I always eat it straight out the bowl, and I usually eat the whole thing myself (sometimes Kurt gets some). Do I feel guilt for eating a whole bowl by myself? Of course not! All there is in this recipe is fresh veggies! What could be healthier.

i am glad you pointed this out. i looked at the recipe again and it is quite simple - i'm also going to do the hummus too!
Ooo. Let me know how the hummus turns out. Do you have a food processor? That's the one thing that has kept me from making it. Well, that and I don't have any Tahini. We love hummus though, so I should just learn how to make it instead of buying it all the time.
That looks really good. And I have Tahini if you want to borrow some. Hummus is so tricky, I have never gotten it to turn out right!!!
