Guacamole - Simple and Delicious

Submitted by Golden Sunflower

"The only way to serve guacamole. Be sure to mix lime juice right away to prevent the avocado from browning. I also put the pit in the middle of the dish - some say it prevents the avocado from browning, too. I only use Haas avocados. Be sure they are soft to the touch, but not mushy."
