Jane @ Jane's Adventures in Dinner is hosting a Make It Mine link party, and the subject for today's challenge is Guacamole! I decided to go with a variation on a BLT guacamole recipe.
BLT Guacamole
Ingredients:
4 strips Nueske's Applewood Smoked Bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
4 ripe, Fresh California Avocados, seeded and peeled
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. Texas Pete hot sauce
¼ cup Sir Kensington chipotle mayonnaise
Juice of one lime
2 small heirloom tomatoes, seeded and chopped (one red and one yellow)
Instructions:
Place all ingredients except tomatoes in a medium bowl; mash and combine with a fork until the texture is semi-smooth.
Stir in tomatoes.
Although I slightly modified this recipe, you can see the original recipe here.
I couldn't even get the table properly set before hungry folks started eating-up the guacamole. We like Scoops tortilla ships because they hold dip so well. This guacamole makes a delicious condiment for a grilled chicken sandwich.

Until next time...
Blessings!

We bought the placemats while in Mexico last winter. They are made by the Otomi, a group indigenous to Mexico. Their traditional embroidery includes colorful, simple images of the natural world — flowers, rabbits, deer and trees — against a natural white cotton background.
The centerpiece is a simple arrangement of Lulu Dark roses and green vibernum.

Yummy I will have to try adding the taste treat.
ReplyDeleteI love the Viburnum, I have had a plant for a couple of years and it has never, ever bloomed.
I love your placemats! Kathy
I do not know if I can get on with my life after seeing this guacamole...at least it is distracting me from the chocolate I have been stuffing in my face! Why can't you live within walking distance?!?!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean - I want this now!
DeleteThis BLT Guac looks SO GOOD. I can't stand it! :)
DeleteAnd those placemats? I adore them SO MUCH! If you are ever back in Mexico, I'd love a set. ;)
I love your household decor. it's so bright and colorful!
Oh my goodness. That looks amazing. I'm going to pin it now, I think I might have to try it this weekend.
ReplyDeleteThe BLT Guac sounds delicious! I just made a version with corn and bacon. I love your artful tables and use of color, so cheery!
ReplyDeleteIt is perfect! This looks just amazing and we'll have to have it this weekend for certain. LOVE that you joined up!
ReplyDeletePerfection! Will need to make a BLT Guac. Love, love, love those placemats. It's always fun to bring home useful souvenirs. ;-)
ReplyDeleteOh my, the Guacamole looks yummy. Love the colorful place mats. Mexico is such a fun place. We went to Cabo years ago and had a great time.
ReplyDeleteI just noticed your picture on the side bar. I love the font you used. I've never seen one like that before.
Have a sweet day.
