Guacamole Again
Guacamole Again I make guacamole a lot – about once a week, so here we are, making Bueno Burritos and, of course, making Holy Guacamole again!! It’s so easy and good – avocados are rich in healthy fats and high in fibre and potassium. Good for you! Why is my guacamole always in a purple bowl? Green and purple are opposites on the colour wheel so they make each other pop! Kind of like why green eyed girls where pinks and purples around their eyes – pop,…

I know – it’s summer time and more often than not, it’s too hot to turn on the stove.

Ingredients Tenderloin Roast – this one is 1.5 lb. (feeds 3-4) 15 shallots 1/4 cup of grated parmesan cheese 1/2 cup parsley 2 tablespoon of minced…
