Foodie Friday {Guacamole & White Sangria}…

Have you missed Foodie Fridays?

I have missed cooking.  We decided to forgo the grocery store this week and use up what we had in the refrigerator and pantry.  It is Friday and I am going a little crazy.  I like planned menus and planned meals.  This “use what we have” nonsense is better left for those fly-by-the-seat-of-their-pants kinda person.  And that ain’t me. 😉

Summer is drawing to a close {I hope sooner rather than later}, but if you want to get more out of those tomatoes and veggies…

GUACAMOLE

• 2 ripe avocados
• 1 small onion, diced
• 1 small tomato, diced
• 1 jalapeno, diced
• 1-2 Tbsp cilantro, chopped
• 1/2 lime, juiced
• 1 clove of garlic, minced
• salt & pepper

1. Mash avocado in a bowl.
2. Add remaining ingredients and stir.
3. Season with salt & pepper.
4. Serve immediately.

WHITE SANGRIA

• 1 bottle white wine (I prefer Sauv Blanc)
• 1/2 bottle Sprite or Sierra Mist (don’t get the Diet version)
• 1-2 lemons, sliced
• 1-2 limes, sliced
• 1 orange, sliced
• Strawberries
• Blueberries
• Watermelon
• Peaches
• Pineapple (canned or fresh)

1. Mix all ingredients together in a pitcher.
2. Serve chilled.

You can mix and match the fruit.  I add whatever is in the refrigerator.  The more the merrier.  Cheers! 🙂

Until next time…
