- Guacamole on a breakfast omelet. You can leave out the cheese and potatoes to save carbs/calories. You can add, egg whites, tomatoes, onions, bell peppers, spinach, mushroom, jalapenos or just about any vegetable your little heart desires.
- Guacamole in a salad. You don't even need a dressing! It is so good with eggs, peppers, and tomatoes.
- Guacamole in pesto! Make your pesto normally and just add guacamole or avocado to it. Serve over spaghetti squash instead of noodles if you want to cut back.
- Guacamole on pizza! I like to make 'salad' pizzas. Let's face it, we all want pizza some time. Why not try to make it a little healthier? Try topping your cheese pizza with salad items next time. It is delicious.

Help! I'm Addicted to Guacamole!
I love Mexican food. I really love guacamole. Okay, I really just love any use of avocados. Although, guac and avocados pair best with bad Mexican food there are some easier alternatives:

Chicago Deep Dish
Two weekends ago, I went to Chicago and tested two local deep dish hot spots: Giordanos and Lou Malnatis. Check out some photos:
At Giordano's (first photo) I had just a plain cheese pizza and it was delicious! It paired nicely with a local brew (312). As Lou Malnatis (second photo), I customized my order and got a cheese pizza base with onions, bell peppers, tomatoes and olives.
Although, I liked the ingredients better of the second pizza I preferred Giordano's! I cannot wait to go back and try other famous hot spots. What is your favorite Chicago deep dish restaurant? How do you deep dish or do you prefer thin crust?
