Guacamole

I've been trying for years to make guacamole from scratch and it never turns out quite right. Last week I finally put together something that tasted just right.

Ingredients:
1 ripe avocado
1/8 - 1/4 cup salsa
Juice from 1/2 lime
1 clove garlic*
pinch of salt

Directions:
Cut avocado in half. Remove pit and scoop out fruit from both halves and place in small bowl. Mash with fork until desired texture. Add salsa, lime juice, garlic powder, and salt. Stir until mixed together. Serve as a side with chips or use in another recipe.

*1/4 tsp garlic powder = 1 clove garlic

  1. I make guacamole with two avacados, one small tomato, lime juice and one clove (or piece of a clove? ok, ok-- just a little bit) of garlic, pressed or chopped, and some salt. Mash everything to bits.
