Asparagus Guacamole
This is a great recipe. It is amazing how much asparagus it takes to make a bowl full of guacamole. I totally faked out my 15 year old daughter, she had no idea it wasn't avocado. I might try adding some low fat sour cream next time. I used lime, cilantro, dried hot red pepper, diced tomato, chopped onion, and salt.

Butternut Squash Bread
This recipe is great! I used 1/3 of it to make some delicious cinnamon rolls. I used one packet of yeast and brown sugar. I used butter and it seems that if you use margarine it might become greasy. Also, I quit counting the cups of flour at 8. It probably took 8-1/2 to 9 cups of flour. This is a huge batch of bread dough but very tasty. Thank you.
