Guacamole

The saying goes when life gives you lemons, make lemonade. What if life does not give you lemons? What if life gives you ripe avocados? The saying would become if life give you avocados, make guacamole. Originally from Mexico, guacamole has become an American favorite that has become extremely popular at parties and other times when friends come together. Besides being a favorite dip with tortilla chips, guacamole goes great as a condiment in a burrito or a taco. Buying guacamole at the store prepackaged  is something that I really do not recommend. Why would you buy pre made guacamole at the grocery store when you can make a homemade version that is at least hundred percent better than buying it. It is also extremely easy to make your own guacamole at home. For guacamole you will need at least two ripe avocados, onion, tomatoes, garlic, salt, and pepper. If you want to put cilantro or jalapenos you may. Guacamole is perfect with tortilla chips so make sure you have a full bag of them before you attempt to make your guacamole. Enjoy

Ingredients:
two avocados
two tomatoes diced 
half and onion diced
2 large cloves of garlic minced 
tablespoon of generic hot sauce
the juice of a lime
salt 
black pepper

Method:
In mixing bowl mash the two avocados. When the avocados are mashed, you may add the rest of the ingredients. When the ingredients are incorporated, the guacamole is ready to eat.
