I did enjoy Dorie's version though but I won't make it again. At least not knowingly... lol. Because I won't follow a recipe. I love them but the bells seem too polarizing to put in a dish that is meant to bring people together, don't you think?Trevor Sis Boomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02265530630570337679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5171858975021092818.post-39940129315272509142014-07-14T05:50:28.611+02:002014-07-14T05:50:28.611+02:00Lovely presentation!

I also have always used tomatoes in my guacamole, Andrea, but I did give the red bell peppers a go this time. Although I probably will return to my tried-and-true guac recipe, chunky and with tomatoes, I thought Dorie's was very tasty. I am a Rick Bayless fan. Michael and I once ate at one of his wonderful Frontera Grill in Chicago.

Was auch immer, am besten, man bereitet das Ganze "à la minute" vor, dann wird auch die Guacamole nicht so unschön braun.<br />Danke für deine aufmerksamen und lieben Kommentare - heute gibt es Fußball im Fernsehen, da wird es wieder spät!<br />Liebe Grüße,<br />AndreaAndrea_TheKitchenLionesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05188562947486964076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5171858975021092818.post-3925582656374547482014-06-30T08:37:55.515+02:002014-06-30T08:37:55.515+02:00Karen, as I mentioned above, I do have some small ...Karen, as I mentioned above, I do have some small and very passionate taste testers that I do not want to disgruntle...they are my biggest and most supportive fans and they do not like red bell peppers, other than that, we were just fine with this recipe.

Gibt man nach der Zubereitung den Avocadokern wieder in die Guacamole, bleibt sie schön grün und verändert sich nicht.
