Fresh Guacamole

Fresh Guacamole

Ingredients:
4 large avocados (or 5 smaller ones)
3 tablespoons lime juice (fresh is ideal)
1 tsp salt
3/4 cup diced onion
3 -4 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
2 roma tomatoes, diced
2 gloves of garlic, minced
1 pinch of cayenne pepper (optional)

Peel, pit, and mash the avocados in a large bowl until you get the desired chunkiness/smoothness. Add the lime juice and salt, stir together, then add the onion, tomatoes, garlic, and cilantro, mixing well. If you're using cayenne pepper, stir that in as well.

Definitely make this the day you're using it, because while it's still good the next day, it does get a little browner in color even when covered in the fridge. This makes a good amount of guacamole, and you can certainly half it if you only want to make enough to go with your meal. If you're making it for a party, I'd one and a half it so you have a little extra - it goes fast!
