Welcome to Pin for the Wednesdays! I can’t wait to see your winning pins. You guys wow me with your craftiness and culinary prowess every week! This week I am super-excited to announce that we have our first sponsored #PinFTW – Ro*tel, the zesty tomatoes with chiles we all love to cook with, is sponsoring this week’s Pin for the Wednesdays. Ro*tel wants to help you “Spring into Summer” with some awesome Ro*tel-based recipes that will wow guests at your spring and summer parties. So if you are entertaining or bringing a dish to any get togethers this Memorial Day weekend, you will want to check out Ro*tel on Pinterest. They have some super-yummy recipe ideas, and they asked me to pick a few to try out as I spring into summer. So, my winning pin is from their “Appetizers & Dip Recipes That’ll Make You Flip” board. The original pin is here, “Guacamole that Rocks”.
I loooooooove Guacamole (Emily and I kind of freaked out over some amazing guac we had in Miami recently), but I have never made it! I was very afraid of dealing with the avocados for some reason. Especially after reading Tess’s #PinFTW that was NOT a win, ha ha.) But I conquered my fear this weekend and my dear husband and I made some super-yummy Guacamole that Rocks with Ro*tel! The recipe is so simple, with just a few ingredients: avocados, Ro*tel, lime juice, onion, salt, and ground black pepper. It only took us about 10 minutes to make, and it was FREAKING DELICIOUS!! You guys, it was so so so so so so SO good. I was seriously impressed with both the simplicity & ease of the recipe, and of course, MYSELF. 🙂 Ha, ha.
This weekend I am helping my BFF Luanne throw a graduation/18th birthday party for her daughter (and our favorite babysitter) Krisha. I’ll be making Guacamole that Rocks again as well as four other yummy party-perfect Ro*tel-based recipes. Can’t wait to let you know how those turn out!
