Guacamole

I love Avocados which means I also love Guacamole! I have never tried a Guacamole with tomatoes in it so this was going to be something new! This was yummy! Great for a healthier, low fat snack! This would be a great Party Food too!

Guacamole
2 jalapenos **
2 Ripe Large Avocados***
2 T Lime juice
2 T Cilantro, Chopped Finely *
1/2 tsp Salt
Dash of Pepper
1 Clove of Garlic, Finely Chopped
2 Medium tomatoes, Finely Chopped
1 Medium Onion, Finely Chopped 

1. Remove stems, seeds, and membranes from Jalapenos. Cut avocados lengthwise in half; remove pit & peel. In medium bowl mash avocado with a fork.

2. Stir in peppers and remaining ingredients until well mixed. 

3. Cover and Refrigerate 1 hour to blend flavors. Serve with tortilla chips. 

Note:

*I did not use cilantro (i am not a fan of the flavor)

** Beware when using jalapeno to not add too much! If it is too spicy, add another avocado to calm the flavor. 

*** When choosing an avocado you want it to feel a little bit soft when you slightly squeeze it. All I can think of is the feel of a ripened peach.
