I know it is still chilly in some parts of the country, but here in Dallas spring has arrived. I don’t care about the official date (which isn’t for another week or so). It just feels like Spring. The crape myrtles are starting to blossom, the tulips are opening and everything just seems to be waking up. I know I am. I just want to get out and breathe in the fresh air!
Around here you may not hear people refer to the season as ‘Spring’ but instead as ‘Patio Weather’. The kind of weather where you can go sit on your favorite restaurant’s patio for hours. Drinking cold beers and margaritas and eating fresh guacamole. Patio weather = My favorite time of the year.
Heck, it can even be your own patio. And your own homemade guacamole. I like the sound of that! Can I be invited?
1 tsp Smoked Sea Salt (or regular)
3. Serve with chips or as a condiment.
This guacamole is just perfect. It is bright, fresh and flavorful but the ancho chile powder provides a deep smokey flavor. I made a batch when a group of friends were over and trust me, it didn’t last long. Everyone loved that it wasn’t mashed and you could still see whole avocado pieces. And I loved that they loved it!
