Mayonnaise Alternative

I'm on a quest to lose this baby weight. Which leads to a quest for decent tasting, healthy foods.
Putting together my turkey sandwich (on whole wheat, with spinach) yesterday, I just couldn't bring myself to slather the toasted bread with a dallop of white saturated fat goop (aka. mayo).
I spotted my bowl of avocados. Lightbulb!


I sliced that puppy up and mashed it with a fork. Threw a little salt and pepper on it and put it on my sandwich. It added taste and the mayo texture without all the hydrogenated oils.
Simple (and maybe something you have all done, in which case I'll feel lame for posting this like it's new info) and yummy.

The lazy man's guacamole

There are TONS of amazing ways to make guacamole. I am sure other ladies on this blog will post recipes that will make you drool and challenge your culinary skills all at the same time...but not me! I am posting a recipe that the laziest of lazy lizards could do.

It's simple.

Cut up two Avacado's and smash them with a fork.
Poor in a dollop of salsa and mix it all together.
Salt it a little, add some pepper and EAT!

I love the cheap store brand chips. They work as good as the fancy expensive ones for this delightful dish.




This is what I just had for dinner. Yup, it's so good it's all I eat when I make it. I took a pic with my cell phone...I am dedicated to this blog or I wouldn't have even paused for that long before devouring! :)

Enjoy!!!

Jamie
