1
The proper ripe avocado should be very soft to touch.
-
2
You shouldnt have to put them in a blender or Cuisinart, but thats up to you.
-
3
Just slice your avocado in half, remove the seed and scoop out the avocado meat into a large bowl (plastic or wooden is best) then squish it up with a fork or a potato masher until its creamy.
-
4
Dice up your onions and tomatoes and add to the avocado.
-
5
Add the lemon or lime juice (Ive used both and you can hardly tell the difference).
-
6
The juice will not only flavor the guacamole, it will also prevent the avocado from rusting, or turning an icky brown color.
-
7
Add your Tabasco sauce and salt to taste.
-
8
Mix all ingredients well, cover your bowl and refrigerate.
-
9
The guacamole can be eaten as soon as the ingredients are mixed but its much, much better after sitting in the fridge for a few hours or overnight, so try and fight off that temptation!

10
Ladle the dip into individual containers or serve it right in the bowl with plain tortilla chips.
-

Guacamole is also great on tacos or in burritos and actually only limited to your imagination.

This recipe can easily be adjusted for more or less quantity.
