Roasted Poblano and Pomegranate Guacamole

"It's like the North Pole in here!,"  My little guy exclaimed when he saw my office piled high with gifts. I buy for so many people, so my office is strewn with wrapping paper, bows, and tags. It is pure chaos, but love it. I still can't believe the "big day" is right around ther corner--The season always goes by way too fast for me. Therefore, I am embracing all things Christmas- Christmas songs on the radio, refills on eggnog, and and I came up with this Roasted Poblano and Pomegranate Guacamole as a festive appetizer. Hope you enjoy it--CHEERS!

Here's What You Need:
2 ripe avocados
2-3 TBS cilantro, chopped
1 poblano, de-seeded and cut in half
Juice of 1 lime
3 TBS of pomegranate seeds
1/4 salt (plus more to taste)

What You Do:
Preheat oven to 450. Roast the poblano for about ten minutes, turning once. Smash the avocado and stir in the pomegranates, cilantro, and salt. Squeeze in the lime juice. Dice the poblano and start adding it to taste. (I used 3/4 of it.) (If you prefer spice, I recommend substituting jalapeno for the poblano.)

Kid Tip:

The poblano is really mild so this is great for kids. And who doesn't love chips and dip?!
