Smoky Summer Recipe: Grilled Guacamole | Apartment Therapy The Kitchn. Summer Peach Salsa | Apartment Therapy The Kitchn. My boyfriend is currently working on the set of a movie filming in Atlanta. Needless to say, he's been working crazy hours and always comes home with war stories from the front line. For the most part, locals have been very welcoming of the Hollywood crowd to our sleepy Southern city.
I'm just hoping we can teach those Angelenos a thing or two about Southern hospitality (and food!). Last week a big scene was being filmed at a major downtown intersection, and the crew was using a church parking lot as "base camp" to keep extra cars and trucks away from traffic. A sweet old man and his wife who care for the church grounds were on hand to assist with any problems (and perhaps get a little peek at all the madness). It just so happens that this man also sells fresh Georgia produce from the parking lot on weekends.
You can imagine the gentleman's curiosity was sparked when he noticed the on-set caterer — brought in all the way from California — working with some peaches for a crew dessert. My Favorite Guacamole. I hope that everyone is as excited for the long weekend as I am! The weather is finally warming up here in New York, although it’s warming up a bit too fast, if you ask me! I was hoping for a little bit of 75 degree weather before we got into the mid-80s with high humidity. Hopefully it will rain just a little bit to relieve the humidity, but it seems that NYC only has extreme weather – either it’s storming like crazy, it’s freezing, or it’s sweltering. I suppose that’s that price one must pay to live in such a great city. Oh well – worth it! If you are having any sort of get together this weekend, don’t forget to make some guacamole! Your ingredients. Mince your shallots, garlic, and jalapeño pepper.
Add in your tomato and minced cilantro, then scoop out the entire flesh of 2 avocados. Now dice your other 2 avocados by cutting criss-cross lines in their “shell”, leaving the skin intact so that you can simply scoop the avocado out. My Favorite Guacamole Prep time: Total time: Serves: 6-8. The Best Guacamole I’ve Ever Made – recipe. Jul 04 2008 **Happy 4th of July everyone (in the USA)!!!
I miss being out of the States on this holiday. We will be celebrating by grilling on Saturday down at the garden. Hamburgers and hot dogs…can’t get any more 4th of July-ish traditional than that! ** I was searching the inter-tubes for a good-looking guacamole recipe the other day. It was flavorful, but not over powering, creamy and chunky at the same time, and gone 1/2 way through our meal!
I found the recipe here at The Daily Green. Here’s how I did it: Ingredients: 2 ripe Avocados, peeled and pitted juice of 1 Lime 1/4 Cup minced Red Onion 2 Tablespoons minced Cilantro 1 small clove Garlic, minced 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt or 1/2 teaspoon Table Salt 1/2 teaspoon Pepper 1 Tablespoon minced Jalapeño Directions: Halve the avocado and remove the pit.

In college i was a waitress and bartender at The Loring Bar & Cafe in Minneapolis. it is where i met alex, so it will always hold a very special place in my heart. it was a really great place to work - cool co-workers, great customers and excellent food. the one thing that we were known for was artichoke dip. i can't tell you how many times i ate that for dinner. it was incredible but since The Loring closed no other artichoke dip has even came close to replacing it. i have tried several recipes for artichoke dip that really sucked. too dry - to heavy - not enough flavor - i have covered them all. but this recipe is the last artichoke dip recipe i will ever need. it is similar to the Loring recipe - dare i say - it might be even better. let me put it this way - this is THE BEST artichoke dip!
I apologize for the weird measurements - i doubled the original recipe because it just didn't make enough! Alex did a beautiful job of modeling the dip :) Yield: Makes about 2 2/3 cups Preheat broiler. Kiwi Mango Salsa. Maui Onion Dip. We are a dippy family. Yeah those you that know us probably just nodded your head yes and agreed with that statement, but I’m not talking that kind of dippy, I’m talkin’ dip dip. We love dips. Be it artichoke or olive, dill, veggie or clam, (hey we are from New England after all) or even the Heluva Good dips my husband loves to keep the fridge stocked with, we love a good dippin’. Onion dip is one of our favorites and up until now we enjoyed the occasional Lipton onion dip, but sadly, that can be no more. I’m afraid I have to cast off the powdery dip in the pouch now that I have found this dip.
This creamy, tantalizing onion dip that is like no other dip we have tasted. Amazingly good. The hardest part of making this was caramelizing the onions and that took like all of 20 minutes. I made this over the weekend when we had 2 extra kids in the house (as always) and the gang of them just about polished the whole bowl off on us. Must make more. Honestly, if you love dip, make this.
