Strawberry Guacamole
I'm the kind of person that loves eating different food. I suppose it's because I cook
a lot and get bored easy with food. The day that this recipe came to me, I immediately
ran to the car and went to the store. I was so anxious to put these flavor combinations
together. I knew that they would go perfectly together, and boy did they ever. It was a
match made in heaven. An explosion of flavor and oh so good for you!!!
Strawberry Guacamole
2 Haas avocados, ripened
5 to 6 strawberries, chopped
1 to 2 limes, juiced
2 or 3 tablespoons red onion
3 basil leaves, minced
salt and pepper
cinnamon/sugar pita chips
In a medium bowl mix avocado ( I like mine chunky ) and all the other ingredients.
Serve with cinnamon pita chips or whatever you like best!
Perfect for strawberry and avocado season here in Florida. Thanks for sharing!
