I’ve been craving guacamole. Most would assume it’s pregnancy related, and it may very well be, but ever since I had some delicious homemade guacamole at Chipotle a few weeks back with co-workers, I’ve been wanting some more. But I wanted to try my hand at making it myself, too.
I headed over to AllRecipes.com to look for the highest rated guacamole recipe they had. I know guacamole is avocado based but that’s the extent of my knowledge on the subject. We went with this guacamole recipe, and bought some fresh ingredients.

So Lucas and I started a new tradition recently and we thought it would be fun to share it with everyone else. Every Sunday, besides the normal doing-no-work-and-relaxing part, we’ve decided to start expanding our culinary repertoire by picking out a brand new recipe, grabbing all of the ingredients fresh, and then trying to cook it together. Note that I put “trying” in that sentence, because we’re sure that while our cooking adventures will be full of lots of awesome, it will also be fraught with some failure. It’s inevitable. And that’s ok, because we’re learning!
The idea is that each week we’ll type up a post to share what recipes we used for that Sunday’s menu. …
