In anticipation of Halloween, I shared a recipe for Deviled Eyeballs with you yesterday. Now today I’m going to share a little guacamole recipe with a twist with you! Both of these recipes are perfect for Halloween parties. They’re pretty quick and simple to make, plus they’re finger foods so there’s no need to buy plates and forks!
Spicy Spookamole
2 fully ripened avocados from Mexico, halved, pitted, peeled and diced
1/4 cup chopped white onion
1/3 cup roughly chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
2 tablespoons chipotle chiles in adobo sauce, seeded and chopped
4 ounces fresh, uncooked Mexican chorizo, casings removed coarsely chopped
Salt to taste
In bowl, combine avocados, onion, cilantro, lime juice, salt and chipotle; mash until combined but still chunky. Heat a medium-sized pan over medium-high heat; add chorizo. With a wooden spoon, break chorizo into smaller pieces as it cooks. Cook and stir until brown and crisp, about 5 to 6 minutes. With slotted spoon, transfer chorizo onto guacamole. Serve with chips or raw vegetable sticks, if desired.
Yield: 4 to 6 servings
