MonT-SteR Cookin'
  I just made my own guacamole for the first time based on a recipe by Dr. John La Puma. I customized it considerably for my own tastes, so I'm claiming this recipe as my own.

MonT-SteR Guacamole

Ingredients

• 3 avocados
• 2 small tomatillos
• Half a small onion, finely chopped
• 1 tsp minced garlic
• 2 Serrano chile peppers
• 1 Roma tomato, diced
• 1-2 tsps each of lemon and lime juice
• 1 tbsp of sour cream
• Salt to taste

Directions

• Mash up the avocados until they're a nice green paste (yucky visual, I know).
• Add the onion, garlic, tomato, and tomatillo.
• Cut the chile peppers in half from top to bottom. Then, take a spoon and scoop out the seeds (this will reduce their spiciness a good bit -- thanks to Dr. La Puma for this tip). Mince the peppers and add to mixture.
• Add the sour cream, and the lemon and lime juice. Salt to taste. Stir thoroughly.

Enjoy on tortilla chips, as a sandwich spread (especially on a deli-sliced turkey sandwich with brown mustard -- YUM!), or as a vegetable dip.

Let me know what you think!

Blessings,
