Stacey's Tasty Guacamole

Total Time: 15 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 4
  • 3 avocados
  • 1 -2 roma tomatoes or 2 -3 tablespoons canned chopped tomatoes
  • 1/2 finely chopped medium onion
  • 1 bunch cilantro, finely chopped
  • 1 pinch worcestershire sauce
  • 1 pinch tabasco sauce
  • 1 piece lime
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Recipe

  • 1 open up the avocado and slice in 1/2. squeeze some lime juice onto the face of each half, and then add some salt.
  • 2 pick up the first half, and slice pieces with a knife in a criss cross pattern (careful not to cut into the avocado peel). then scoop the pieces into a mixing bowl with your fingers. repeat with all avocados. make sure to put 1 pit in the bowl. a friend from costa rica taught me this, and for some strange reason this helps the guacamole to stay fresh longer.
  • 3 then mash the pieces of avocado with a fork, and stir in the other ingredients. be careful not to add too much worcestershire or tabasco sauce - you really just need a few drops of each. the lime and salt amounts above are not fixed - just add a little, taste it, and add a bit more until it tastes right to you. stir the other ingredients all up and you have yourself some tasty guac!
  • 4 variations: sometimes i use salsa when i don't have fresh tomatoes, or chopped rotel or something similar from a can. i like the glass jar of salsa casera, or the embasa small can.
  • 5 you can also add garlic, or top with parmesan cheese.
  • 6 note: the portions for ingredients are estimates! you have to use your own discretion a bit ;).
