Whenever there's going to be more than 2 people total visiting Reddy Kitchen, guacamole is our go-to appetizer. It's fun, healthy, and fits perfectly in 1 of our 3 serving dishes (while we no longer live in NYC, apparently we still think we do...cabinet space = precious real estate).
Guac + chips is an ideal starter no matter what type of cuisine follows; we like to mix and match cultures here at Reddy Kitchen. I love when guests ask if there is mayo in it aka my invitation to proudly respond, "Nope, that's the natural creaminess of avocados!" Woohoo, it's always the little things that bring me so much joy :-) Thank you, Mother Nature, for the textures, flavors and colors you have bestowed upon us.
Anyway, this is one of the few items for which I am the head chef, not the sous chef - can I get another woohoo!? And I know "fresh" guac is readily available at grocery stores, but this homemade recipe takes less than 15 mins. and slicing open those perfectly ripe avocados is just so satisfying.
