Perfect Guacamole for football game entertainingSome things never change.  This weekend I met up with some of my best friends from college for our Alma Mater’s homecoming game.  It’s officially been a decade since we graduated, which does not seem possible.  I learned that although a lot of time has passed, some things just don’t change.  Like  Danielle’s hair.

Circa 2000

Can you tell which one is Danielle?  (I love you, Dani)

Although we have a few more crow’s feet and smile lines, some things don’t change.  Like how no matter how long it’s been, there are some people you will always turn to.

Judging by the food I brought to our tailgate, some things do change.  Like the way I eat.  I would have stuffed my face with much greasier, much more artery-clogging grub when I was in college.  Perfect Guacamole for football game entertaining

Instead I brought a batch of veggie burgers (which I did get teased for), some roasted red pepper hummus with homemade crackers, and football game guacamole.  Perfect Guacamole for football game entertaining

Every last bit of the guacamole was eaten and my friends demanded I post the recipe, so even though there are a bazillion recipes for guacamole on the Internet, here’s one more. I promise this will be the last recipe you ever try. It’s that good!

    Maryea! I love your boots and jacket! Can I ask who makes them?

    My friends love to tease me about how “little” I eat, how “healthy” I eat, and lastly how “skinny” I am, then proceed to complain about their own weight while they stuff their faces with that college-type of bad stuff. I love my girls but it’s hard not to point out the obvious. Duh ladies!

    Anyhow, I eat my veggie burgers with much pride and just put a lid on it (my mouth that is). Someday I hope they’ll start asking questions instead of teasing!

    🙂

      Thanks, Amanda. The jacket is from Banana Republic and the boots are from Nine West.

    Would love to have the roasted red pepper hummus recipe and the homemade cracker recipe. Both sound delicious. Can’t wait to make the football game guacamole. You guys look great!

      The cracker recipe needs some tweaking, but I am going to work on it and then post it. The roasted red pepper hummus is super easy recipe but again I feel like it could use more modification before I post it. I’ll work on these! 🙂

    10 years difference between those photos? You guys look amazing. My high school photos and now are painful. (Probably because I’m not like you and eat so much worse NOW. 🙂
    I love hanging out with old friends. It’s just like coming home.
