We’re on our way to Vancouver for one last weekend away before I leave for New Brunswick next week. This might be our last time in Vancouver for a while, which is not an easy thought. I love Vancouver so much. If it weren’t for the insane housing cost, I would live in this city in a heartbeat. It has everything I want in a city, including mountains, trails, beaches, beautiful views and of course plenty of vegetarian restaurants.
This weekend, Shaun and I are going to see a show in the city. We’re hoping to try a new vegetarian restaurant and also eat at a few of our favorites. I’m also hoping to do a bit of hiking nearby. We have 3 busy and exciting days ahead of us.
I’m not leaving though, before sharing this fresh herb guacamole with you guys. Trust me, you’ll want this for your weekend snacking.
Never know, maybe this would make a nice snack for the dads in your life on Father’s Day? With tortilla chips of course.
How to Make Guacamole
This is not a traditional guacamole. I know. But, it’s delicious, flavorful and so easy. Here’s how it’s made:
- Mash the avocado in a medium bowl, along with lime juice.
- Add salt, chopped herbs, onion, tomato and garlic. Stir until combined.
- Serve with tortilla chips or in a burrito, burrito bowl, salad and more.
It’s that easy.
Guacamole is the best. If you don’t think so, then you’re wrong (I’m just kidding). But seriously, give this herb guacamole a chance. It’s delicious, just like any guacamole, but has that extra little touch from fresh summer herbs. It’s the best.
