The old Gary Cooper movie, Sgt. York, is a family favorite with our entire team. In one scene Ma asks the blessing and says, "Lord bless these vittles we done got...". Hence, the name of our recipe collection.

Shell's Guacamole

1 avocado
1 tsp lime juice
¼ tsp salt
½ tsp cilantro
¼ tsp garlic powder

Halve and scoop avocado into a bowl. Add remaining ingredients. Smash it all together with a fork. Enjoy!

A long time ago I ordered the Guacamole Live! at On the Border restaurant while we lived in Virginia. It was an appetizer that they made for you at your table. I came home and recreated this recipe after watching how they did it. They didn’t use garlic powder so I added that part in because I like garlic. :) Daniel loves this stuff and would eat an entire bowl of it if I let him. He and I usually polish off a bowl if this in no time flat. He is my guacamole buddy! Maybe one day he will be making this for his wife and children. :)


Love Always,
Mommy
