I'm starting it off with something so simple, but so delicious - the Bloody Cerveza with fresh lime, and made-from-scratch guacamole. This is one of our family favorites, especially when there's a good game on.

World’s Best Guacamole
Another great recipe in the Football Couch Potato Series

You’ll need:
8 ripe avocados
4 cloves fresh garlic, pressed or finely chopped
½ of a large onion
3 Serrano chilies, chopped finely (you can add some finely chopped Habanero too if you like it HOT)
2 ripe, firm tomatoes, chopped into small cubes
Chopped cilantro
¼ cup pomegranate seeds
½ of a fresh lime
Salt
Plenty of fresh tortilla chips

Beer
Clamato
More lime

Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and spoon the halves into a large bowl. Add the garlic, onion, Serranos, tomato, a handful of chopped cilantro (if you're lazy, just use fresh-made pico de gallo from the supermarket in the veggie aisle) and pomegranate seeds: mix with a large spoon. Do not mash. The mixing process will break the avocado up perfectly. Salt to taste and squeeze the lime on top – mix again.

Serve with fresh tortilla chips and an ice cold cerveza. (You can make your own tortilla chips by slicing up fresh-made tortillas and frying them in oil till crispy.)

Bloody beer is fantastic with this – for an amazing blend, mix one part plain Clamato with two parts beer, and squeeze in the juice of a whole fresh lime. Believe it or not, you don't have to use Mexican beer, or even light beer. Try it with a Newcastle - you'll be very pleased.

Salud!
