Guacamole
- 3 ripe avocados, mashed
- 1/4 cup chopped sweet onion or green onions
- 1/4 cup diced jalapenos, fresh or pickled
- 1 tablespoon juice from peppers (if using pickled)
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 3-4 cloves garlic, chopped
Mix all ingredients. Serve immediately--avocados turn brown after extended exposure to air. Addition of the lemon juice helps slow the process. Excellent with all Mexican dishes, on salads or as a chip dip.
This recipe is also great with the avocados cubed instead of mashed.
