Since my collection of eggplates now extends beyond 100 pieces, I am always looking for ways to use them beyond just serving their intended food, deviled eggs.  Most recently I was attending a neighborhood garden party with a number of neighbors at our coast house in Morro Bay<\/a>, California.  I knew from experience that guacamole, an avocado based dip for those who might not know, is always a popular item, especially during the summer months when they are available fresh and frequently from local sources as the hillsides near our home in San Luis Obispo County<\/a> are the home to extensive orchards of avocado trees<\/a>.  Regardless of the origin of the fruits, serving, and especially, eating any dip is a challenge at these parties where guests are mostly standing while eating to better circulate and chat with friends and neighbors.  I along with a neighbor and good friend came up with a new way to serve the dip, prepared as a ready to eat appetizer, conveniently served in an eggplate, in this case, a scarlet red eggplate in the Fiestaware<\/a> line, produced by the Home Laughlin China Company<\/a> of Newell, West Virginia<\/a>, still proudly American made since 1936.<\/p>\n

Making the appetizer is quick and simple!  You will need:<\/p>\n

2 large Haas Avocados
\nLemon Juice (from 1\/2 of a medium lemon)
\nGround Cumin
\n1 small clove garlic (pressed)
\n1\/4 cup prepared salsa (use mild or medium)
\nSalt
\nTostitos Scoops by FritoLay (multi grain or regular)
\nFinely shredded cheese
\nPimento stuffed olives, sliced<\/p>\n

Mash avocados and mix with lemon juice, cumin, garlic, and salsa. Salt to taste.  Spoon into Tostitos Scoops and top with cheese and thin slice of olive.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
