A Fun Meal In Guacamole With A Twist

These are the days when a fun meal is needed. There's nothing like a guacamole and chips for dinner. It's a simple mix that's easy to make and tasty to eat. That's what we need right now. That's where my version of this Mexican classic came in. There's a a twist to it though.

It starts with avocados. I was able to get some really nice ones at my local Acme.
I used four and mashed them (save the pits for growing indoor avocado trees).
Most times I usually use regular tomatoes however I'm kind of leery now about using any exposed produce. I bought  packaged grape tomatoes instead and was pleasantly surprised by the sweetness they added.
Add as much as you want. I used eight cut in half.
Then olive oil for smoothness. I always recommend this.
 Sea salt and freshly ground pepper.
Of course onion powder which is less potent than onions themselves You can use the real deal if you like their texture and bite.
Everything was mashed down with a potato masher which gave the guacamole a nice texture between silky and chunky.
I had mine with chips but you can put this with tacos or on burgers if you want. I added more tomatoes to my serving and just ate it plain.

This is just one fun meal to keep up our spirits right now. It's comfort food that 's also makes for enjoyable eating. Make a bowl for the family, and bring out the chips.
