The other day we were at the store. Avocados were on sale. Cilantro was on sale. We already had chips at home. I was in the mood for some chips with salsa and guacamole.
Our friends, Justin and Melynna James, taught us a really easy way to make salsa and guacamole. Melynna let me know that Justin learned this from an old hispanic lady in Southern California.
Salsa:
Take 2 cans stewed tomatoes (I used diced and add Italian Seasoning) and 1 chopped jalapeno. Boil them together until they get the thickness you want. Put them in a blender.
Add a Tablespoon or two of lime juice and some cilantro (as much as you like in your salsa) without stems.
Blend it all together.
Guacamole:
Mash up some avocados and add some salsa.
Fun. I put them both in water to see if either of them will grow this time. Wish us luck.

We used two avocados and their pits were completely different sizes.

My oldest insisted on keeping pumpkin seeds from our jack o' lantern to plant in springtime. I think he's forgotten by now though. Thank goodness because I doubt they'll be good anymore.
