Welcoming Spring

The beautiful weather has once again lured us outside and of course, led us on another family adventure.  We spent time by the water, had fun with friends and toured the Toronto Zoo.

Even though the water was pretty cold - the girls still wanted to go in.

I'm never one to show up empty handed, so I whipped up some yummy guacamole. Here is the recipe. Enjoy!

2 ripe avocados

1/4 finely chopped Spanish onion

1/2 jalapeño pepper

1 tbsp cilantro

lemon juice

lime juice

salt & pepper

1/2 chopped tomato (remove seeds)

Cut avocados in half. Remove seed. Scoop out avocado from the peel, put in a mixing bowl.

Using a fork, mash the avocado. Add the chopped onion, cilantro, lime & lemon, salt and pepper and mash some more. (season to taste)

Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready.

Just before serving, add the chopped tomato.
