Ingredients
  

  • 1 medium size avocado
  • 1/2 lime (juice and zest)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 pinch fine grain sea salt
  • a few cracks of black pepper
  • 2 drops Tobasco hot sauce
  • 1/4 cup pineapple (small cubes)
  • 1/2 small red onion (finely diced)
  • 1/2 red bell pepper
  • 1/2 tsp ground chipotle
  • 1/2 handful fresh coriander leaves (roughly chopped)

Instructions
 

  • Roast the bell pepper on the stove top by placing the bell pepper on the burner (so directly on the flame). Turn it (using bbq thongs) until all sides are equally (slightly) burned. Place the burned bell pepper in a plastic bag and leave it in there until cooled off.
  • (Have your kids) mash the avocado. I prefer mine pretty smooth, but you can leave it as chunky as you like. Add the lime juice, garlic, hot sauce, salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
  • At this point I divide the guacamole in 2 batches; 1 stays like this, to the other I add a bit more magic!
  • Remove the bell pepper from the bag and peel of the burned skin. Once clean, cut the roasted bell pepper in small cubes.
  • Add lime zest, pineapple, red onion, bell pepper and ground chipotle to only one of the two batches. Combine it all and as a finishing touch add the coriander leaves on top.

Notes

You can adjust the amounts of most of the ingredients to your liking;
- I like mine garlicky so I add at least 2 cloves, but just 1 will do.
- lime, salt and pepper; adjust to your liking
- Tobasco hot sauce depends totally on how much you(r kids) can take. Keep in mind you are adding ground chipotle to the grown up version as well which will add more spiciness!
