Guacamole

Guacamole is as much about texture as it is about flavor, that is why I recommend mashing the following ingredients with the backside of a fork instead of cheating with a food processor. You may have to put some elbow Greece into it, especially if the avocado isn’t quite ripe, but it will be worth it when your guac is king of the party and not a runny mess. The lumpy consistency also adds to the credibility that you in fact made it from scratch!

Ingredients:

·         2 avocado guts

·         ½ white onion diced

·         1 tomato diced

·         Lime juice to taste

·         Salt to taste

Method:

·         Combine the avocado, diced onion, and diced tomato into a mixing bowl and mash until creamy yet lumpy

·         Add the remaining ingredients in small increments tasting before adding more

If you’re in a hurry, skip dicing up the tomatoes and onion and instead throw in some fresh salsa or pico de gallo.
