Recipe: South of the Border Guacamole

So, Cinco de Mayo is almost over, but guacamole with tortilla chips is something you can eat year round! My family eats it at least biweekly – and avocados are so high potassium and good fats that it makes it seem like we are eating a healthy food, too! Here’s one of the highest rated guacamole recipes on the internet and it’s a copycat of South of the Border Restaurant’s version.

Ingredients:

• 2 large ripe Avocados
• 1 medium Tomato, chopped
• 1 Green Onion, chopped
• 2 Green Chile Peppers, seeded and chopped
• 1/8 tsp. Black Pepper
• 3 Tbsp. Lemon Juice

Instructions:

1. Chop avocados coarsely and mash until smooth.
2. Add tomato, onion and chiles and mix gently. Add pepper and lemon juice. Stir.
3. Cover tightly with plastic wrap until ready to serve. Serve with your favorite tortilla chips.
