Zoltan’s Guacamole
2 avocados
2 cloves garlic, chopped
the juice of ½ of one lemon
small onion, minced
1 tomato, seeded and diced
salt and pepper to taste
Scoop out avocados. Add garlic, squeeze lemon, and mash until smooth. Add tomato. Stir, then season to taste. Cover if not serving immediately!
Notes:
I frequently half this recipe, depending on how loud the tummy rumbling is or if we are having guests. We serve this with Tostitos nacho chips warmed in the oven, cheese melted over top. Lately we’ve also had it in a wrap sandwich with turkey and sprouts and inside steak fajitas.
Who is Zoltan you might ask? His whole title was Zoltan the Adequate, and he was a very nice entertainer at a Renaissance fair. He had a rat, and between shows, Mecandes somehow got a conversation and this yummy recipe out of him.

as far as the site goes, I’m so glad that someone likes it! especially since I’ve been thinking about it more than the real blog. lol
anywho, I have added a little reminder to my profile at the top of mere catholics’ sidebar.
