GuacamoleIngredients
At least 3 ripe avocados
1/4 Cup finely chopped red pepper
1/8 Cup finely chopped purple (red) onion
Dollop of sour cream
Dollop of salsa
Garlic salt to taste
1/4 to 1/2 squeezed lime
Add all ingredients then mash the avocados (don't mash them until all ingredients are added). The end product should be chunky.
Add the salt to taste. If your chips are very salty, you might want less salt in the guacamole.
Also, all ingredients are a rough estimate. A lot of what makes this guacamole fantastic is that you are making "gametime" decisions -- adding a little here and there.
Most importantly, keep one of the avocado seeds to put back in the guacamole when you are done. This will keep it from turning brown.
