Guacamole by Penelope


My sister says...."I was cruising through your appetizer recipes on the blog and thought you might like my own personal fave guacamole".

Ingredients:

  • 2 medium Hass avocados
  • 1 small package chevre
  • 2 cloves garlic finely minced
  • juice of 1/2 lemon 
  • lemon zest
  • salt
Mix until quite smooth. This is really tangy and very tasty on sandwiches. Use instead of mayo - especially on a BLT.

Editorial Note: And once again, from Wikipedia...The Hass avocado, sometimes marketed as the Haas avocado, is a cultivar of avocado with dark green-colored, bumpy skin It was first grown and sold by Southern Californian mail carrier and amateur horticulturalist Rudolph Hass, who also gave it his name. The Hass avocado is medium-sized, weighing 200-300 gms.  When ripe the skin becomes a dark purplish-black and yields to gentle pressure.Owing to its taste, size, shelf-life, high growing yield and in some areas, year-round harvesting, the Hass cultivar is the most commercially popular avocado worldwide.
