It’s not as easy as you might think. I went to three grocery stores and could not find jalapeño peppers. And no one had corn chips in bags bigger than lunch snack size.
We were determined. I bought a slightly less-than-ripe avocado. We fell back on pimenta oil, since jalapeños were not available. And like it or not our only corn chip option was snack bags of Doritos corn chips with fake cheese flavor.
But at the end of the day we had luscious nachos with guacamole. Can you say SATISFACTION?
I was hosting a friend of mine who had never eaten guacamole before. Mission accomplished. Smiles around.
UPDATE: all the recipes for this fabulous lunch are now posted at Danielle's "Cooking In Brazil" blog.
