Holy Guacamole

Summer is coming to an end, but the veggies just keep on coming. Who doesn't love themselves some guacamole. I know I do! With fresh vegetables and other ingredients, this recipe is worth the extra work for the taste it has in comparison to the guacamole seasoning packets you can buy at the store.

Ingredients

• 3 avocados, peeled, pitted, and mashed
• 1 lime, juiced
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1/2 c. onion, diced
• 3 tbsp. fresh cilantro, chopped
• 2 roma tomatoes, diced
• 1 tsp. garlic, minced
• 1 pinch ground cayenne pepper (optional)

Directions:

1. In a medium bowl, mash together avocados, lime juice, and salt. 
2. Mix in onion, cilantro, tomatoes, and garlic.
3. Stir in cayenne pepper.
4. Refrigerate for 1 hour for best flavor.

* Note: For those of you with more self-control than myself - who don't eat the entire batch in one sitting - for better leftovers, store guacamole in an air-tight container with the pits from the avocados. This will prevent the guacamole from turning brown.
