Instructions

Guacamole
    Cup of Yum
  1. In a medium bowl, combine the avocado and lime juice and toss until the avocado has been completely coated.
  2. Add the garlic, kosher salt, cumin, and chili powder and toss to combine.
  3. Using a fork or potato masher, mash the avocado and spices to your desired consistency. Less mashing for chunky guacamole; more mashing for creamy guacamole.
  4. Add cilantro and stir to combine.
Frankenstein
  1. Spread prepared guacamole on a large serving plate in a rectangular shape.
  2. Add cucumber slices where you want eyes, then top with black olive slices for eyeballs.
  3. Use the cucumber tip for the nose and then put celery stalks in place for the neck bolts, top with half cherry tomatoes for the screws.
  4. cut really thin slices in the red cabbage and place them in a zig zag where you want the mouth to be.
  5. The hair is created by cutting triangle shapes in the red cabbage and putting them on top of the head.
  6. Use Sriracha Sauce to make scars if desired.
  7. Serve guacamole with tortilla chips, vegetables or your favorite crackers.

Notes

  • To make the guacamole in advance, make it then cover your bowl with plastic wrap, making sure there is no air between the guac and plastic wrap. This should help with the oxidation and will keep your guac from turning black! Store in the fridge for about 24 hours.
  • Make sure your avocados are nice and ripe to make the guacamole. If you get unripe avocados, you won’t be able to mash them enough to make this tasty. You should be able to squeeze the avocado similar to a stick of butter, where it has some give. Place the avocados in a brown paper bag to ripen quickly.
