Guacamole


The origin of the name "guacamole" lies in the Aztec word ahuacatl, which the Spanish conquistadors transliterated as aguacate/avocado, and in the word mole/sauce or mixture. There are many variations of guacamole but this spicy version is definitely my favorite.

Guacamole

3 Ripe avocados
1 Ripe tomato (finely chopped)
1 Lime
1 Jalapeno pepper (finely minced)
1/2 Red Onion (finely minced)
1 T Cumin
1 t Salt

Mash avocados with juice & pulp of lime, stir in remaining ingredients. Serve with chips, tostadas, tacos or whatever please you!
