Guacamole With a Kick

100_0623

Guacamole is one of my favorite things to eat! There is just something so satisfying about all the flavor in a good guacamole.

I have tried many different recipes for guacamole as well as storebought, but this recipe is probably my favorite. You can adjust for your taste of spiciness, but even my mom who hates things too hot loves this, so while it does have a kick, it's nowhere near extreme. If you like it extreme though just increase the chili powder and/or hot sauce.

Guacamole With a Kick

3 small or 2 medium avocados, mashed
1 tbsp lemon juice(lime juice should be fine if it's all you have)
1 medium onion, diced fine
1 large tomato, diced fine
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp chili powder
1 dash hot sauce

1. Mix all ingredients together in a bowl, adjust chili powder and hot sauce according to person taste and tolerance for 'heat'.
2. Cover and allow to chill for a bit, serve as desired.

*make sure avocados are nice and ripe or it will seriously affect how good your guacamole is.
