I have a confession to make. You know those people who break out the spring wardrobe at the first hint of warmth in the air? Yep, I’m one of them. Especially after THIS winter! I have all my favorite sandals lined up and ready to go! (OK, I may be shivering, but at least I’m shivering in style!)
The same thing goes on in my kitchen. After a long winter of bubbling casseroles and delicious stews that simmer for hours, I just can’t wait to switch things up a bit. Especially because some of my favorite springtime recipes are so incredibly easy, fresh and fun.
And that’s why I love prepping for Cooking on Q Spring Edition. It usually starts months before the event, when there’s still snow on the ground. But I brew up some iced green tea and start thinking about picnics and those first warm spring days, where everyone remembers how much fun it is to be outside again.
That’s why I’m sharing one of my favorite recipes for springtime entertaining – Easy-Breezy Guacamole. With only 5 ingredients, it’s super simple, super fresh, and you can whip it up in about 5 minutes. (Although, it tastes so incredible, no one will believe that for a second!) Perfect for an easy night with friends or that first warm spring weekend get-together. I like to serve it in our Gingham Gardens Set…it’s so charming and cheerful, it feels like a breath of fresh spring air.
Tara’s Easy-Breezy Guacamole
2 – 3 ripe avocados
2 – 3 cloves minced garlic, to taste
1 tablespoon salsa
½ lime
Salt and pepper, to taste
1) Scoop out avocado from shell and place in a small temp-tations bowl. Mash with a fork until almost smooth.
2) Stir in garlic and salsa. Squeeze juice from lime over the top and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Mix well.
3) Serve with tortilla chips.
So, I can’t promise I’ll be sporting my sandals on March 30. (Mother Nature has definitely shown us who’s boss this year.) But I will definitely be celebrating spring in true Temp-tations style with lots of delicious dishes and fresh springtime looks for your kitchen. I so hope that you'll join me! And be sure to tell me in the comments section below what you’re cooking up to celebrate spring.
XOXO - Tara
