Long weekend Guacamole
With the first Canadian Long weekend of the summer upon us – the much anticipated May 2-4 or Victoria Day long weekend – many city dwellers are upon the roads (the 400 specifically) desperately battling traffic on the way out of the city to attempt to gain some peace and quiet (and maybe a little long weekend beer buzz) at the cottage. We conjure up rest, beer, chips and dip and maybe guacamole…
Me, I am sitting here, dedicatedly typing away because I can not imagine leaving all of you in the lurch without a Sunday Recipe.
I love you that much.
Also, Leo and Ryan are at Hockey tryouts and we aren’t leaving for the cottage until tomorrow.
(Whatever)
Where this one came from – the back story
Ok, so this week’s recipe is long weekend and cottage inspired. Specifically Port Elgin Cottage inspired. This recipe came to me from a friend of mine who has a cottage in the neighbouring town of Southampton – her name is Tina (Hi Tina!)
I first tasted her legendary guacamole at a party at my neigbours (Ally that’s you) – this neighbour of mine is about as nutty as I am and throws the best costume parties every year. Everybody dresses up and I mean everybody – ages 8 -82. It is a blast. Here are some of my costumes from over the years:
Enough back story where is the recipe already?
Ingredients for the best guacamole:
2 avocados
3 tablespoons onion diced
1/2 cup miracle whip
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 cup tomatoes diced
2 cloves of garlic (smushed)
4 pieces of bacon crumbled small
Smush up the avocado and mix everything together.
That’s it really…
Be careful though I really couldn’t lay off of this guacamole – I had to walk away. (but then I kept walking right back over… ya, I don’t make it that often unless I want to eat the whole thing)
