Pineapple-Black Bean Guacamole

Submitted by Crafty Lady 13

"This was the winner in the May 2012 Better Homes and Gardens Ultimate Guacamole contest. Guacamole revved up with the addition of pineapple and black beans. Created by Beth McDonald - Churchville, NY. Her recipe description: "I love guacamole and I wanted to try something different. I kept adding new ingredients and adjusting amounts--the pineapple adds a little sweetness--and it seems that with each bite I taste a different flavor." I'm looking forward to trying this one. Yum! Total time does not include chill time."
