My Guacamole

 

This is one of many versions of my guacamole. I LOVE avocados so I extra love my guac. This version is a bit spicy. Just add less peppers/chilis to make it mild. 

 

 

Ingredients

makes enough for a party

5-6 ripe avocados, pitted and skin removed  (keep the pits)

2 garlic cloves, crushed

1/4 red onion, minced

1 bunch of fresh cilantro leaves, chopped

2 limes, juiced

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp pepper

1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

2 seranno peppers

1 hot red chili

 

Instructions

1. Halve the avocados, set the pits aside and scoop the flesh into a medium sized mixing bowl.

2. Add all of the ingredients above (just the juice of the lime!) and smash the mixture together with a potato masher or a fork until it is all smooth.

3. Add the pits back into the guacamole. This will keep it from browning. Thanks to my dear friend Lucia for teaching me that!
