Layer of refried beans in a flat bottomed baking dish;
Top that with a layer of Emerald Valley salsa;
Top that with a layer of sliced black olives (olive layer and salsa layer may be reversed);
Top that with a layer of shredded cheese;
Bake in oven until cheese is melted;
Top that with a layer of shredded ice berg lettuce;
Warm up some corn chips until just hot but be careful not to burn the chips.
Eat with an ice cold beer, preferably with a Coors banquet to wash it all down.

 

Hard to beat really good guacamole.

 

Is there such a thing as really bad guacamole?

 

Some cheap restaurants cut it with mayonnaise because avocadoes are expensive. Grossola!

 

Non salted guac is pretty bland. Not sure there’s a food that salt brings more flavor out of.

 

Thank God I've never come across that.

 

Absolutely! Might you have a preferred recipe? Do you include cumin at all?

My basic recipe includes avocados; chopped green onion; cilantro; chopped roma tomatoes; minced garlic; lime juice; chopped jalapenos; pinch of cumin; salt/pepper

 

Mayo in guac is is down right wrong!

 

BTW,

GO NINERS!!

They led the league with over 6 yds. per down. They have the perfect ball-control offense to compete with (even beat) the Packers!

 

A bit of cumin. Avocado, cilantro, garlic, lime, jalapeno, topped with a tomato/jalapeno/onion/ relish. A bit of chili.

 

My secret recipe, and DON'T let this get out;
avocado and now my secret ingredient - lime juice. Here's the second and perhaps the most secret part, you gotta mash it all up.

 

Reminds me of this song....

 

I don't like guacamole totally smooth. Should have texture.

 

I like to mince some white onion and add that to my guac. Personal preference.

 

No problem, mash it with a fork until it reaches your desired consistency.

Are you making salsa or guacamole?

 

I make both but salsa doesn't have avocado.

 

But guacamole has salsa?

 

I make a garnish of onion, tomato and cilantro.

 

Sounds like a nice compliment. I have some leftover chili from the other night. Gonna add some chorizo, a bit of rotel, and some spices and create a quazi-nacho base.

 

Guac's in the fridge, nacho base is still reducing a bit. Getting ready for today's games!

GO TITANS AND NINERS!!
