Notes: There are many different ways to make guacamole but this is an easy recipe that is extremely delicious. Great as an appetizer with corn chips, cornbread, or crackers. Also great with Mexican dishes like tacos, burritos, enchiladas etc... It's a great dish to make when it's hot outside too because you don't turn on the stove. Avocados are considered a super food; being extremely healthy they are packed with disease-fighting antioxidants, and are high in fiber.
