- Hey, y'all, it's Jamie Dean,
0:01
coming to you from the Chicken Box again.
0:04
Theresa's like a bad penny, she keeps turning up,
0:06
but I always need to borrow a penny,
0:07
so I'm always happy to see her.
0:08
Thanks Theresa, for coming down today.
0:11
Now today, I'm making a recipe
0:13
out of one of mom's, I think it's her magazine?
0:16
It's a guacamole dip,
0:17
and let me tell ya...
0:18
I make a better guamocoo...
0:20
Try that one more time.
0:22
Let me tell y'all one thing...
0:24
I make a better guacamole dip than my mom does,
0:26
I make a better guacamole dip than my brother does,
0:27
I make one better than my wife,
0:28
I make one better than Theresa,
0:30
I make one better than you,
0:31
I might make one better than you!
0:33
But today we're gonna try Mom's.
0:36
Lemme tell you, mine is nothing.
0:37
I can tell you mine real quick.
0:38
Avocados, add a little bit of sour cream,
0:40
tomatoes, I leave out cilantro,
0:42
fresh onions, lime juice, that's it.
0:44
The sour cream smooths it out a little bit,
0:46
and that's it for my recipe.
0:48
Much like every recipe that I make here,
0:50
it's not the best in the world,
0:51
but it is some of the more simpler recipes
0:53
'cause I love the simple
0:55
southern flavors that go into this.
0:57
So mine's a little bit different
0:59
and mine's is way different from the start.
1:02
'Cause first of all, we got a food processor
1:04
and I don't work with food processors very often,
1:06
but I'm happy to work with one today
1:09
'cause Theresa brought it.
1:11
I've got eight ounces of cream cheese.
1:18
I've never put cream cheese in mine before.
1:25
Everybody in this whole world's different
1:26
and does things different ways
1:28
and it's gonna be interesting to see how
1:32
Let's see, basically Mom's using cream cheese as a softener,
1:34
whereas I use sour cream as a softener.
1:38
(avocado pit thuds) (knife thuds)
1:42
I lost my trashcan right there next to you, Theresa.
1:44
I'm just gonna cut this a little bit.
1:45
This one's kind of firm,
1:46
so I'm glad that we got our pulser today
1:49
that we're gonna use.
1:50
So I'm just gonna skin both of these out.
2:00
If you get an avocado that's kind of this tight, y'all,
2:03
You know, and if you put it in the brown paper bag
2:07
A brown bag overnight really
2:10
can ripen up bananas or avocados or anything.
2:13
It's like a magic trick.
2:17
This one's a little softer.
2:21
(avocado pit thuds) (knife thuds)
2:24
I'm just gonna squeeze it out.
2:29
And whether it's lemon or lime,
2:31
you're gonna have to need a citrus in here
2:35
because our avocado is gonna turn brown if we don't.
2:37
And so mom has chosen lemons
2:41
and I need two tablespoons of this,
2:43
so I'm just gonna squirt it right in here.
2:46
This stops the browning process
2:48
it also is gonna give it that zing and zip.
2:50
I love it, but I prefer lime in mine.
2:53
I guess I'm gonna spend this whole recipe,
2:54
just breaking down Mom's and building mine up.
2:56
What do y'all think about that?
2:58
Comment below, I guess is what the kids say.
3:01
Okay, I gotta get this onto the machine.
3:02
I'm gonna pulse it until it gets smooth.
3:04
Y'all turn your hat around.
3:05
I'll be back here in one minute. Thanks.
3:07
Alright y'all. (knife chops)
3:13
I should've read my whole recipe
3:14
before I started badmouthing Mama's guacamole recipe.
3:18
'cause this isn't a guacamole recipe.
3:20
This is a guacamole and spinach.
3:22
So that explains the cream cheese.
3:25
The cream cheese and the spinach
3:26
play really well together.
3:27
So with our avocados blended down,
3:29
it's really pretty and smooth.
3:32
I add two little plum tomatoes.
3:35
I'm gonna drain right here off my
3:43
And then we have thawed out half a package of spinach.
3:49
Now, and I'm going to cut this
3:51
because I know how this spinach is.
3:54
You can get a piece that will...
3:57
and the bottom of it's in your stomach.
4:00
I'm gonna chop this up.
4:06
Get rid of some of these stems in here.
4:13
(knife taps and scrapes)
4:23
We don't have any salt
4:27
and I know that spinach and avocado needs it.
4:33
Just a little bit of black pepper.
4:39
half a teaspoon maybe of our hot sauce?
4:42
And then I can adjust that if I want to
4:44
and then we're gonna fold this in.
5:06
Now, if I would've been thinking,
5:08
and I believe I've shared this trick with y'all before,
5:11
any... (muffled voice)
5:13
When you cut your avocado in half,
5:17
maybe save half of it
5:19
and then you could actually put this dip
5:21
into your avocado skin
5:22
and surround it with chips and serve it that way.
5:25
I don't have any chips here today,
5:27
so I'm gonna use my bread knife.
5:31
(knife clatters) (Jamie smacks lips)
5:37
You know what it can use? A little bit of dill.
5:43
I really like where it started.
5:48
(knife thuds and chops)
5:48
This just needs two teaspoons of dill.
6:00
(knife taps and scrapes)
6:05
That was the flavor that it was missing.
6:18
Now that looks like something there.
6:31
I'm not a big fan of spinach.
6:35
I love how smooth it is in the processor
6:37
and I love the tomatoes.
6:39
The only thing I would do
6:40
is maybe add a little bit of fresh onion.
6:42
I love the crunchy onion in my guacamole.
6:44
So that's it from the Chicken Box today.
6:46
Mom's is really good.
6:48
Although I don't put...
6:50
It's a completely different dish.
6:52
I wonder what the odds are
6:53
that I got spinach in my teeth from eating this
6:55
when I tell y'all bye.
6:57
We'll find out together.
6:59
Thanks for tuning in, y'all. This is good food.
7:01
I'll see y'all around the kitchen.
