Guacamole

From:

Everyday Food

You can make the guacamole several hours ahead, and keep it in the refrigerator. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, pressing the plastic directly onto the surface of the guacamole to prevent discoloration.

Ingredients

  • 2 ripe avocados, peeled, pitted, and lightly mashed
  • 1/2 cup minced onion
  • 1 jalapeno chile, minced (remove seeds and ribs for less heat)
  • 1 plum tomato, seeded and diced
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • Coarse salt

Directions

  1. In a bowl, combine avocados, onion, jalapeno, tomato, cilantro, and lime juice. Season with salt, and mix to combine.

This was a huge hit with my family. Easy to put together also.

I always put in 1 clove of fresh garlic, minced or crushed (easiest to do with a garlic press)... probably you should cut down on the onion a bit if you do this. If you don't have fresh jalapenos on hand/are feeling lazy, flakes of red pepper give it a good kick and look pretty. I agree that this recipe is a little heavy on the cilantro and light on the lime.
