Family BBQ
It was such a beautiful day here in Portland. The sky was blue and the temp was only 80 degrees. That put me into BBQ mode. So here are the recipes I came up with for our family BBQ.
Guacamole Burger: 4 servings
1-1 1/4 lb. lean ground beef
salt and pepper to taste
4 T. BBQ sauce
4 slices colby jack cheese
Evenly divide the beef into 4 patties. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place on the grill and once you flip the burger, add a tablespoon of BBQ sauce to each burger and then the cheese on top . Finish cooking a couple more minutes till desired doneness. Pull off the grill and assemble the guacamole burger!
Guacamole:
3-4 avocados
1/4 diced red onion
1 tomato, seeded and diced
Juice of a lime
salt and pepper
8 dashes of hot sauce
1-2 T. chopped cilantro
We had this with fresh fruit, and chips and salsa. I made fresh pico de gallo that was so delish! Here's the recipe for the pico.
Pico de gallo:
3 tomatos(on the vine), diced
1/4 red diced onion
2 T. chopped cilantro
salt and pepper to taste
juice of a lime
1/4 tsp. lime zest
Mix all together and let sit for 15 minutes. Serve with tortilla chips and enjoy!
