Guacamole Saturdays

It is too hot to do much of anything during summer in Florida. So it has become our family ritual to spend weekends vegging by the pool with some icy cold beer and a batch of home-made guacamole. Going to college in San Diego, I became good friends with a girl named Brenda from Mexico. She was an amazing cook, and her guacamole was SO good! This is the recipe that she gave me all those years ago.

2 ripe (but not too soft!) Haas Avocados
Juice of 1 lime
1 small jalapeño, finely diced
1 tbs finely chopped red onion
handful of fresh cilantro leaves, roughly chopped
1 tsp course sea salt
fresh ground pepper to taste
1 roma tomato, seeded and diced

Roughly mash avocados into a bowl. Squeeze in lime juice. Add salt, pepper, jalapeño, and onion. Mix together. Add in cilantro and then tomato. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve with tortilla chips. Buen provecho!
