On the weekend, I went shopping and picked up a whole bag of avocados for $3 at my local Coles grocery store. Whilst I was there, I also picked up some Truss tomatoes & a red onion… along with a packet of corn chips!! You guessed it.. this is what we had during happy hour yesterday afternoon…
It was extremely satisfying.
I’d never made guacamole before but thought I’d wing it. We ended up with a very chunky, rustic version but delicious none-the-less.
I diced the 5 large, ripe, avocados, added 4 diced Truss tomatoes, half a diced red onion, and the juice of a fresh lime (although we’ve got a couple of lime trees of our own, the Tahitian limes aren’t ready for picking yet (and the Kaffir limes tree is basically for the divinely fragrant leaves) – BUT my neighbour’s lime tree keeps dangling enticingly over our fence so for the first time – I seized the moment & I pilfered one!!). I added a good handful of Maldon sea salt.. and the result.. was just amazing…
Probably could have been better with a bit of spice & a handful of chopped coriander but I had my toddler’s palate to contend with!
Lil’ E helped me layer up the nachos with alternating layers of corn chips, guacamole & mozzarella cheese. Simple, semi-healthy though very indulgent, yet rather tasty!! 😀
