Munchies

Since the Superbowl is around the corner and my hometown is hosting it, (hopefully we won't make asses of ourselves in the process) I thought I'd share with you some great munchies for the game.

Again not Cuban food, but definitely Latin inspired the Guacamole is a recipe I got from my favorite American Mexican restaurant Cisco's before they closed and tore the building down, that was a really sad day, since we were regulars and the kids favorite place when they were younger.

Guacamole

1- Ripe Avocado
1- Small Purple Onion
2- Tomato
1- Lime -Juiced
½- Bunch of Cilantro minced
2- Cloves of garlic minced
3- Tablespoon of Olive oil

Chili seasoning (which ever one you like I use McCormicks Chili Seasoning), hot sauce, salt and pepper to taste, since everyone's tolerance for spice is different.


Peel and pit avocado cut into pieces and put in a bowl. Smash with a fork leave lumpy.
Chop tomato into small pieces add to bowl
Add garlic, onion, cilantro and olive oil to bowl
Add chili seasoning (I add 1 teaspoon) hot sauce (I add 1 teaspoon) thensalt, pepper and lime juice.

Stir all the ingredients until mixed. Chill for 1 hour .

Salsa
4- Ripe Tomatoes
1– Medium Purple Onion
1- Cup of Olive Oil
2 – Limes

1/2 bunch of Cilantro, minced

Chop tomatoes and place in bowl
Finely chop onions add to bowl
Add olive oil, and juice of the 2 limes.
Chill for an hour

I sometimes take tortilla chips and melt Jack/Cheddar grated cheese on them and then serve it both dips. Don’t forget that these go great with a margarita on the rocks or a cold Corona with lime slice. "GO SAINTS"!

(sorry blogger crapped out before I could upload the rest of the pics, but you guys get the idea)
