Post Super Bowl Reset

Statistics (those darn things!) indicate the majority of Americans ate and drink more than they typically do - maybe even more than on Thanksgiving yesterday.

So what's one to do?  Put your behind in the past and move forward. Don't stop reaching for your goal.  Don't stop pressing for the prize.  Don't give up!(Is that enough cliche talk?)

Improved blood lipids are in your future.  Improved blood pressure, sugar, and resting heart rate are within your grasp!  If you went gastronomically overboard yesterday let's do a reset starting today!

Today is a new day with new possibilities.

I'm with you.

Food Fit for a Super Sunday: Holy Shockamole

Now that we know who will be competing in the Super Bowl it's time to begin preparing for the party! I don't go off the wagon for this game - I become creative and stretch the boundaries of tasty food.  If you're invited to a party and want to contribute to the longevity of your friends consider this dish:  Shockamole!

Ingredients

5 ripe avocados, peeled and pitted
1  sweet onion, peeled and coarsely chopped
1/2 cup loosely packed cilantro (chopped finely)
1/2 lime
3 Serrano peppers stemmed and minced (seeds give it more heat)
salt to taste

Optional:
1 chopped tomato
1 or 2 cloves minced garlic

Directions

Combine all ingredients (except salt) and mix together.  I prefer my guacamole a bit chunky some like it creamy.  Combine salt to taste. Cover with plastic wrap tightly on top of the mixture to avoid browning. Serve with chips or crispy pita bread.

My early prediction: Denver 27 Seattle 17
