A friend is hosting a "Chopped Christmas" party at her house tomorrow. I've been sick so I have had no time to think or plan. We were given 5 ingredients. We must use 3 of them. What would you make with these ingredients?
Bell pepper
Garlic
Avocado
Bacon
Mushrooms
I feel like stuffed mushrooms is too easy, right? Everyone will make those?

I was thinking stuffed mushrooms!
Can you ONLY use 3 of those - can you add anything else?
I was thinking a guac dip - avocado, garlic, bacon could be your three

@Mamaof2: you can use any other ingredients, too! My one idea was to do bacon-wrapped jalapenos stuffed with cheese, chopped mushrooms and chopped bell peppers.

I would do little puffs...do you know how to make choux paste? I would make up a batch of the paste, stir in the chopped and cooked mushrooms, garlic and bacon and then bake.
Or, buy a sheet of puff pastry or a box of those tiny pie shells and put some of the cooked vegetables in there and bake.

What about a nice quiche or frittata? Use bell pepper, garlic, mushrooms...or sub bacon for one of those! For appetizer, you could do mini version in a mini cupcake pan.

Get some of scoops tortilla chips and fill them with guacamole with some diced bell pepper and bacon on top.

Guac with bacon (little bit of garlic in it). Use peppers for dippers.

I would make crab, avocado, shiitake mushroom sushi rice and serve with the nori squares.

Something like this with avocado slices instead of sour cream. It is a huge favorite around here!!

@looch: that sounds good. I make something like that when I make gougeres. Everyone loves those so I may have to try this. Thanks!
