my best culinary invention so far

A couple weeks ago i was busy making my fave snack of veggies and guacamole when i thought to myself, this really is a tasty treat, but it doesn't have any protein in it (read: less than ideal for recovery).

How can I add protein to my guacamole?

Answer: cottage cheese!

Many meals and treats that are missing protein get the "cottage cheese treatment" in my house, fruit salad, pancakes, granola, and most dinners include cottage cheese. So why i didnt think of this sooner, I am not sure.

So here's what to do at home; (By the way, when i read blogs with recipes on them i often think, "that sounds good" but never get around to making the thing myself or even write down the ingredients under some kind of illusion that i am going to make it someday. If you are like me, I suggest you make an exception this time)

Take the following ingredients; 1 large avocado, a huge dollop of cottage cheese, some lemon juice (this stops the mixture from turning brown in the fridge), salt and pepper and mash them together in a bowl.

Dont forget the secret ingredient; Hot sauce!

And voila, you have the perfect dip for veggies, rice crackers or corn chips. Tonight i even loaded some on a grilled chicken breast. Yum.

Occasionally i get something right. This is one of those times.
