Welcome to #ScrumptiousSaturday! Is everyone ready for the Super Bowl? Sure, the game is important, but what about the food? After Thanksgiving, I think Super Bowl Sunday might be the biggest eating day of the year for Americans, so you want to make sure your snack line-up is all that it should be. There are certain foods that need to be at every Super Bowl party and guacamole is one of them. Right? And besides tasting delicious, guacamole is actually good for you- it's got the "good" fat and vitamin E, and it's great for keeping your blood sugar stable. But the Super Bowl is not a time to think about nutrition- just whip up a batch for your party and enjoy it!

The Best Guacamole Ever
(adapted from Alton Brown)
Ingredients:
- 3 Haas avocados, halved, seeded and peeled
- 1 lime, juiced
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 medium onion, diced
- 1/2 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
- 2 Roma tomatoes, seeded and diced
- 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
- 1 clove garlic, minced
Prep and cook time 1 hour, 20 minutes; yields 6-8 servings.
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, place the scooped avocado pulp and lime juice, and toss to coat. Drain, and reserve the lime juice, after all of the avocados have been coated.
- Use a potato masher to add the salt, cumin, and cayenne and mash.
- Fold in the onions, jalapeno, tomatoes, cilantro, and garlic.
- Add 1 tablespoon of the reserved lime juice.
- Let sit at room temperature for 1 hour and then serve.
Pita chips, raw veggies, and of course, tortilla chips are great for serving with your guacamole.
