Garlic Guacamole

Recipe #302079 | 10 min | 10 min prep | SERVES 2 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Brooke the Cook in WI

No tomatoes in this guac - which makes it a great one for when fresh tomatoes aren't readily available. I often make it in the summer even when tomatoes are available as this is one of my favorite guacs - fair warning though, the garlic comes through loud and clear!! Course salt (I use sea salt) is smashed with the garlic and then combined with avocado, jalapeno and onions! Adapted from Rachel Ray
