Guacamole

When we have any sort of Mexican dish, guacamole is a MUST. I keep it pretty simple with my guac. 

Not pictured, jalapeno (I forgot I had it until after I snapped this)

Ingredients:

Avocados

Lime, juiced

Red Onion, finely diced

Cilantro. minced

Jalapeno (optional, and I don't always use), seeded and diced

Salt to taste

Directions:

Use ripe avocados and mash with fork or potato masher to the consistency you like. I prefer a little chunky, so whatever you like. Add lime juice, cilantro, red onion, jalapeno (if using), and salt. There is no exact measures on this one. You just have to add to your liking. I used 6 avocados last night, the juice from 2 limes, a handful of chopped cilantro, about 1/4 c minced red onion, and about 1/2 diced jalapeno, seeds removed.

• I know there are some cilantro haters, so leave that out if that's you.
• Make ahead by a few hours if possible.
• Store by smoothing out guacamole in bowl and added plastic cling wrap to the top. This will help prevent browning.
