Homemade Guacamole

I have an affinity for anything avocado, so naturally I am a huge Guacamole fan.  With that being said, I am not a big fan of onions, and I'm always striving to come up with the best onion free guacamole recipe.  Last night I concocted something amazing.  So amazing in fact, that it just had to be shared.  Enjoy!

Ingredients:
3 Avocados (seeded and peeled)
Juice of 2 Limes (only use 1 if you don't love the hint of lime taste)
1/2 Red Bell Pepper (seeded and chopped)
8 Champagne Tomatoes (chopped, can substitute grape tomatoes)
1/2 Jalapeno (Seeded and Minced)
1 Clove Garlic (Minced)
1 tsp Himalayan Sea Salt
1-2 tsp Cumin Powder


Directions:
Add all ingredients to a bowl and mix thoroughly.  Enjoy! 

Cinco de Mayo Recipes

Now that Easter is over it's time to look for the next great themed holiday to cook for....  At least that's how the thinking goes in my world.  So I have come across 4 recipes for things that I would like to make but never have in the past.  If you were looking for a more substantial meal you can check out my previous recipes.  I like Mexican food and cook a lot of the simpler recipes on an almost monthly basis so I wanted to branch out to drinks and desserts and a new dip for my chips :)  Enjoy!  And please add on any of your own!
