In blog-land, there is an endless array of gorgeous centerpieces for summertime parties. Pinterest is full of beautiful table eye-candy. 

But let me ask you this: what beats a spread of delicious food in the middle of a table? 

Not much. 

I love to have good nibbles on hand whenever we have people over. And I’m a sucker for anything with avocado.

If you’re Mr. Suburble, you might call them “guacamoles” – because your brain works like that. 

While I love traditional guacamole, I wanted to try something with a little kick. Rather than add salsa or peppers, I wanted to add the taste of curry. It worked out so well!

I used Patak’s Vindaloo Curry paste – it’s a hotter curry, so it gives you great bang for your buck. 

I love a smooth guac, so I like to use my  mini food processor to blend the ingredients together. If you prefer a chunkier consistency, just mash your avocados with a fork. 

I think that this spicy dip would also be great on burgers or hot dogs. Or even chicken! I love a little kick to my dips, and anything with avocado is a friend of mine. 

If wishes were avocado trees, I’d have one in my backyard. A rain-loving avocado tree that ran away from California to find itself.

Probably not going to happen. 

But until that day: we snack!
