Fantastic Guacamole

This Guacamole always disappears fast. This year I made a batch with 25 avocadoes. There is nothing more exciting than a giant bowl of guacamole. When there is that much everyone feels free to just dig in. By the end of the night the bowl was empty and it looked as if someone had held it up to there face to lick it clean.
Here’s the basic recipe.

4 avocadoes
½ jalapeno, minced
½ roma tomato, seeded and diced
2T red onion, minced
1 clove garlic minced
1t cumin
2 limes, zested and juiced
salt and pepper
½ bunch cilantro




Try to get the avocadoes a few days in advance so they are nice and ripe. I like to score the avocado flesh with a pairing knife so when you spoon it out it comes out in small pieces. Combine all of the ingredients in to a large bowl. Use a large fork to combine the ingredients to the texture you like. I prefer to leave it a little chunky so you can really enjoy the texture of the avocado.
