Our first vacation together was to Napa Valley while were dating back in 2013. Then we got married in Napa in 2014. And the rest is history I guess! This is a very special place to us that has many memories tied to it🍷🍇 

Looking forward to see what the next 10 years has in store! Love doing life with you @alexgrivna 🥰😘
These fall sunrises have been something else 😍🍁🍂

Guacamole Recipe!

Living in Texas, we tend to make a lot of guacamole! We have access to really good avocados almost year round for a cheaper price (compared to northern states). Thus, I end up making guacamole almost on a weekly basis!
This is always requested at my parties. The BEST Guacamole Recipe

It is so tasty and you can use it for multiple purposes. You can do a chips and dip, a guacamole burger, put it on a salad, use it in any Mexican dish, etc.

This is always requested at my parties. The BEST Guacamole Recipe

I have received several compliments on my recipe*, so I decided I would post what I do to make my guacamole super tasty!
*Note: I never measure anything for this recipe and just kind of go with the flow, so these measurements are my averages/best guesses!

Catheryn's Famous Guacamole

Print Recipe
Prep Time 15 minutes mins
Servings: 6 people
Course: Side Dish
Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 3 medium/large avocados
  • 1 cup red onion, diced
  • 1 medium/large tomato, chopped
  • 2 jalapeños, diced
  • 2 limes
  • Garlic salt to taste (about 1-2 tablespoons)
  • Cilantro, chopped (about 2 tablespoons)

Method
 

  1. Carefully cut the avocados in half and scoop out the insides into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
  2. Add your jalapeño, onion, tomato, garlic salt and cilantro. Mix thoroughly.
  3. Squeeze the juice of 2 limes into the bowl and mix thoroughly. Add additional garlic salt if needed.
  4. If you like it chunky, don't mash the avocados as much. If you like it creamy, be sure to mash the avocados completely.
