Fresh Texas Guacamole

I never ate avocados until I married my husband. He convinced me to try them by making this! I can't believe I denied myself them all these years! This is a traditional Tex-Mex staple.

SERVES 7 -8 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Peel the skin off the avocados. Slice it off the pit using a knife. Mash the avocados up in a bowl till smooth. I have seen many opinions on this subject here on zaar but here in Tx I have only seen guacamole served smooth and creamy, that's the only way I've had it. Plus you get more!
  2. 2
    Add garlic and salsa and mix together. Add salt and pepper to taste and combine.
  3. 3
    Add some lime juice if you prefer or if it will be sitting out for while. Enjoy!

Fantastic! I've been making my own guacamole ever since I found this recipe - I make it for just two people with one avocado, juice from 1/2 lime, 2 Tbsp salsa, and garlic salt - that's it!! So simple, and so delicious. I love it.

    Good recipe. We make Mexican guacamole by adding freshly made pico de gallo to the garlic and avacados.

    Excellent! Superb!! I made mine with plenty of fresh squeezed lemon juice (I was out of lime) and everyone in my family raved about it! They said they would eat it alone with a spoon if they could!!
