Joey's Kicked Up Rockin' Guac

Party worthy guacamole recipe- gluten-free



Here's the best guacamole recipe. Yup. From our archives. There seems to be some partying goin' on this weekend. You already know how I feel about it. But who am I to deny that my Nachos Fabuloso and Lime Chicken Tacos wouldn't be some fun and super-tasty get together food? Not to mention my Jalapeño Lime Hummus. Or my Chicken Enchiladas New Mexico Style. And hands down, the tastiest guacamole ever. Seriously.

Party on, gluten-free guys and gals.

Joey's Kicked Up Rockin' Guac

Apparently in some circles my pal Joey's guac is famous. But lest I be considered indiscreet, we won't name names. Let's just say, this guac is rockin'. The best guacamole this side of the Mississippi. (Thanks to Will, for styling the limes.)

6-8 ripe avocados (depending upon the size)
3 tomatillos, chopped
2-3 ripe red tomatoes, seeded, chopped
1 small red or sweet onion, diced fine
6 cloves garlic, chopped
1-2 jalapeño peppers, seeded, diced fine
1 big bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
Sea salt, to taste
2-4 fresh juicy limes

Peel and pit the avocados; cut the fruit into chunks and toss into a large bowl.

Add the chopped tomatillos, tomatoes, onion, garlic, jalapeños, and cilantro. Toss with your bare hands. Get squishy.

Season with sea salt to taste. Squeeze fresh lime juice all over the guac and mix again. Taste test. Add more salt or lime, to taste. Taste test again (this is the fun part).


Serve in a festive bowl topped with lime wedges. Break out the tortilla chips.


Notes::

  • For the texture sensitive, mash the guac smooth and leave out the chunky veggies.

Girl, you truly are the Goddess! I've already been to the store, but now I have to go back and brave the crowds for these ingredients. Nacho's Fabuloso must have this guac to go with it.
Thanks for another fine recipe ;)

YUM!! Thank goodness I have avocados in the house, although maybe not all the ingredients, have to check that list more closely. I will be making some guac today.

I haven't had breakfast yet and I am thinking about lunch already.. :)

Karina said...

Chupieandj'smama- Sorry (not!). ;)

Hey SM- Guac = yum. Anytime.

Have a fun weekend, all.

Oh, I am drooling! No superbowl party for me (great day for shoe shopping) but I'm making the guac anyway!

This is the most interesting guac recipe I've seen. A party for the taste buds--I can't wait to try it. I just found your site. I've spent much of the last few days looking for GF recipes online, specifically baked goods without bean flour. (My last chocolate cake tasted like falafel.) THANK YOU! Your recipes look like the type of food I like to cook, unlike the GF cookbook I received for Christmas. (Good grief--why would I want a GF recipe for tuna noodle casserole? Blecch.) ;)
My best to you. . .

Geez, just when I thought I could kick off my shoes and get comfortable. Now I have to run back to the store for the tomatillos!!!! But it will be worth it - this looks fab! Go Pats:).

Thanks Shelly!

Madeline- Mashing + mixing = delicious guac. ;)

Hey Simply Gluten-Free! So tell us- did you find some fun shoes?

Hiya Moon Gypsy- My blog is a bean flour FREE zone. And soy free. Cannot stand bean or soy flours. And as for the cookbook you received- I bet I know which one. And I returned my copy. ;)

Dear Ellen- Football condolences. I heard it didn't go well.
