Guacamole Boats

Submitted by Susie in Texas

"These make an attractive side dish or salad when serving Mexican cuisine. For parties, you can cluster the boats on a large platter and surround them with fresh tortilla chips for dipping. If you have your own favorite guacamole recipe, use it!! :-) I mainly posted this because it is quick and easy with a clever presentation."
