>This is Husband’s recipe. He makes it, I eat it. Well, okay, he eats it, too. La Petite has added this to her repertoire now, too. It’s become a standard when we need to bring a dish to pass.

Guacamole Dip

2 Ripe avocados, peeled, cored, cut up
1 large tomato (fresh, firm, diced – peeled if you prefer)
1/4 chopped red onion
1/3 to 1/2 cup mayonnaise or Miracle Whip
1 teaspoon salt
1-2 drops tabasco sauce
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
(optional: 1 diced green onion)

Combine and mash all ingredients. Cover and let chill for a few hours or overnight. Serve cold with chips!

Tips:
For the tomato: Before dicing, slice the top off; then use a grapefruit spoon to scoop out the inner pulp.
Chips: Use any kind, but make sure they’re firm. Chips that crack in the thick, delicious guacamole dip are no fun at all.
On the side: margaritas, of course!
