Guacamole
Print Friendly and PDF

Guacamole may be served in the traditional way as a dip for tortilla chips but it is also wonderful on grilled hamburgers, spooned into tomato shells, or spread on bacon and tomato sandwiches.

If you have leftover Guacamole, put it into the bottom of a salad bowl and thin it with a little Italian dressing to produce a fresh-tasting avocado dressing in seconds.

See our quick video on how to make this Guacamole recipe.

Ingredients
2 avocados, peeled, seeded, and sliced
2 garlic cloves, pressed
1 shallot, minced
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
Several drops of Tabasco sauce
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions

1. Place the avocado slices on a large plate and mash them with a fork. (This method creates a consistency that is smooth yet texturally interesting.) Blend in the garlic, shallot, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and Tabasco. Mix in the chopped cilantro. Transfer to a bowl and lay a sheet of plastic wrap directly on the surface to retard browning. Refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours or until lightly chilled.

I was taught by my Mexican husband how they make real guacamole. They use Avocados, finely chopped up tomatoes, onions, cilantro and lime juice. Nothing more! It is really good!
