Fresh Corn Guacamole with Nigella Seeds

In our area avocados are readily available, so we use them in everything. We top our breakfast eggs with slices of avocado, stuff our tacos, and make guacamole weekly! I grew up on my uncle Mike’s avocado farm, and as kids we would play hide – and seek in the orchard, along with the rats and snakes. We played for hours but also ate lots and lots of avocados. As I visit my farmer’s markets weekly, I do look for fresh produce, and corn was available. So, why not add it to your avocado-guacamole.  Melissa’s produce provided me with fresh avocados and all the fixins.

Use fresh avocados that are fully ripened.

Fresh corn can be easily stripped by using a sharp knife.

Cilantro the key to the best guacamole. If you’re not a fan, you can use parsley.

I like to mix up my presentation with a little healthy and a little naughty.

These are the organic chips I serve with all my dips.
