Guacamole

This recipe came from Mexico and given to me by a neighbor friend whose husband is from Mexico and they both lived there for a while before coming here to the USA. This is the way that his mother made Guacamole. Show more

Directions

  1. Peel avacados and scoop out the center and mash.
  2. Add the diced tomato, onion, and peppers.
  3. Add the salt to taste; avacados are bland and will take a fair amount of salt, so keep tasing as you go (if you don't get enough salt, it will be tasteless).
  4. Also, I add a little pepper juice to it and that will perk up the heat, too.
  5. When it is all mixed, I add a little milk or a tad or sour cream to keep it from getting brown.
  6. NOTE: I have a jar of pickled jalapenos and they work well also and keep longer, but you will have to use several slices to make up for 2 peppers.
