One of my favorite appetizer to make for get-togethers is guacamole. It is incredibly easy to make and it is always a hit. Tonight for the Superbowl, I made this guacamole and it was fantastic! The recipe I use is from the Better Homes and Garden cookbook “Anyone Can Cook.”

Guacamole

Ingredients:

2 medium very ripe avocados, halved, seeded, peeled, and cut up

2 tablespoons chopped onion

1 tablespoon snipped cilantro or parsley

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 clove garlic, minced

2/3 cup finely shopped, seeded tomato (1 large) optional

Tortilla chips

Directions:

Place all the ingredients in a large resealable plastic bag. Once all the ingredients are in (besides the tortilla chips), seal the plastic bag, then squeeze and knead the bag until all the ingredients are in a almost smooth consistency (I leave it a little chunky because that is the way I like my guacamole.) When you have the desired consistency, cut the corner of the bag off and squeeze the guac into a bowl. Serve immediately with tortilla chips.

Enjoy!
