Breakfast Guacamole
This Guacamole came about out of my desperation for a breakfast side.
​
On most weekday mornings I have sunny eggs and toast, most times with avocado slices.
But being the picky eater I am, I always felt that it needed some 'moisture' (yes, moisture)
​
I felt like the meal needed something to bring it altogether and generally make it a more hearty, interesting breakfast.
​
​
this with some fried bread...trust me
So one day I made some burgers and it had some guac in it.
Eureka !
​
I adapted the burger guac for breakfast meals, this meant removing the scotch bonnets, onions and garlic to make it more palatable for a first meal.
I added more diced tomatoes and replaced the bonnets (ata rodo) for some dried chilli flakes, because you know me...
​
This guac has revolutionized my breakfast game so of course I had to share it.
​
Enjoy !
