Walk A Moe Lay (Part 1)

Wait...what? What the hell does "walk a moe lay" mean? Well...it means "guacamole". At least, that's what it's supposed to mean. To me. It might not to you. Then again, this is my blog. And what I say goes. Sort of.

Anyway, this post is about guacamole. I recently discovered this tasty treat and have grown quite fond of it. While it's not as high on my list as pickles, it is slowly working its way up into the mix. I don't know why I am just now enjoying guacamole. Maybe it's due to the simple fact that I've never tried it before. It never interested me. I didn't "not" like it. I just never tried it. But, now that I have, I see what I have been missing. How could I not have tried this sooner?

When trying new foods, everyone comes to a point in their travels when they think, "Hey...I could make this." Or, even moreso, the ever-popular, "Hey...I could make this BETTER." I haven't had too many variations of guacamole, and generally stick to a brand called "Wholly Guacamole". It's just a basic guac, but it's quite tasty. I don't know if I could ever top a company that specializes in guacamole production, but I figured I would give the homemade approach a try.


Thus, I began the long and arduous journey of sifting through online recipes to find the perfect one. Recipe after recipe called for the same few ingredients: avocados, onions, tomatoes, and cilantro. There were a few odd balls additions, but all-in-all, they were all the same.

Then, I stumbled upon a recipe called "Easy Never Forgotten Guacamole" on the website allrecipes.com. It was created by a used named JULESKI. It incorporated cream cheese in the guac to make it a little thicker and creamier. I was intrigued, so I decided to roll with it.

I don't want this single post to get out of control, so I will end it here. Don't worry, faithful readers...I am going to post again in about 5 minutes with the recipe and results. Because I know that you are just dying to know what happens next.
