Guacamole Recipe

Guacamole. I used to hate it. That was before I tried it :). I use to hate it because I dont like avocados. Guacamole is a dip that is based on avocados but it's taste is a totally different thing. I think it's delicious and here is a simple recipe for this easy to make Mexican appetizer. What do you need?

 

• 3 avocados, peeled, pitted and mashed
• 1 red onion, minced
• 1 red bell pepper, chopped
• 1 green bell pepper, chopped
• 1/2 yellow bell pepper, chopped
• 1 fresh jalapeno, chopped
• 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
• 1 lime, juiced

You need all this to make a full blown real Mexican guacamole. I will first explain how to make this one and the I will make one that is the easiest guacamole recipe out there. There is even a site with all the different guacamole recipes you can think of from classic to spicy to recipes with cheese, mayo, salsa etc... Check it out!

OK, the first one goes like this:

Take a bowl and put it mashed avocados, jalapeno peppers and red onion. And stir.

Then take another bowl and cut in green, red and yellow peppers, cover them with lime juice and add this mix to the avocado mix.

Throw in the cilantro and stir. You are done!

If you want a simpler guacamole then do just this:

Peel and mash the avocados.

Mix in minced red onion.

Add some salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. 

Mix and you are done.

Guacamole is best right after it is made. If you won't eat it right away cover it with plastic wrap and put it into the refrigerator. I love it with some tortilla chips but you can easily put it on a piece of bread or use it as a side dish with meat... the choice is yours.
