Quick and Easy Guacamole

Quick and Easy Guacamole

Once upon a time ago, I wouldn't eat avocados - it was a texture thing. Not anymore! I love them, and I almost always have them on hand. When hungry strikes, this is a healthy, filling dinner or snack that takes me less than five minutes to make.

Ingredients:

  • 1 ripe Hass avocado
  • 1 t fresh lime juice
  • 1 T hot salsa
  • 1 T fresh onion, chopped
  • generous pinch of chili powder
  • generous pinch of garlic powder
  • chopped fresh cilantro to taste
  • salt & pepper to taste

Preparation:

  1. Cut avocado in half, remove pit, and scoop flesh into a small bowl.
  2. Add lime juice.
  3. Mash with a fork to desired consistency.
  4. Add remainder of ingredients and mix thoroughly.
  5. Enjoy!
