| We adapted this recipe from Mollie Katzen's super fun cookbook 'Honest Pretzels'. Ingredients: 4 ripe avocados 4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice 1 teaspoon ground cumin 1 teaspoon salt Step 1 Grind cumin seeds in a mortar and pestle or hand churn grinder. Fresh ground cumin seeds smell and taste amazing! Step 2 Squeeze fresh lemons with a citrus juicer. Step 3 Slice avocados and scoop out the fruit and pit with a spoon. Step 4 Add lemon juice and cumin. (It's really fun to put on some latin tunes and speak in spanish while you're making guacamole!) Step 5 Mix ingredients with a masher and sprinkle salt to taste. Enjoy with your friends! We got a lot of our child friendly cooking tools from www.forsmallhands.com Cool stuff! |       |
