Guacamole Rotel
"I was in the process of making a "quick" guacamole to go with fajitas. The salsa I had planned to use had gone bad. Rotel to the rescue. I drained a can of Rotel tomatoes and dinner was saved."

Thank you so much for your recipe for guacamole. I'm planning on a taco casserole for supper, but found I had forgotten the fresh tomatoes and lime. I looked on line and found your recipe. I had everything, even the lemon. I have it in the frig now for the ingredients to marry, and I must say, it tastes wonderful! Can't wait for supper!! -
A can of Rotel is the easiest way to make outstanding guacamole! Just open a can, mash an avocado with a potato masher, add the other ingredients and presto! Some tips are to make sure that you drain the can thoroughly so the end product isn't watery, and don't use the Habanero type unless you are sure your friends like spicy food. I usually use key lime juice instead of lemon juice. Also one big Florida avocado is the perfect size for one can. Thanks for posting the recipe here! -

I came to this site in March of 2004. It was then called Recipezaar. This site was the first on-line site that I ever joined. I first popped in 2003 while searching for a Peach Cobbler Recipe. In March of 2004, DH was having shoulder surgery and I was looking for a Split Pea Soup. Once again I found myself on Zaar as it came to be called.
Over the years I hung out and learned from some of the best home cooks in the country, I posted over 700 recipes on the site, reviewed over 3500 recipes and posted over 3000 food photos. Over the next 10 years the site made many changes and in 2010 it was sold to to Food Network and became Food.com.
Until last year we played games, talked and shared with one another. As a result of the community and the relationships I built I got to meet some wonderful people from all over the country. I also have a great number of friends that I have never meet face to face. Some of us still hang out at various places across the net.
Zaar was more than a cooking community. It was an internet community of friendship. Life is an adventure ever changing.
