Guacamole

The Grandma of a couple of kids I babysat for, made this for dinner one night. She learned how to make it when she lived in San Antonio, Texas. I loved it and make it whenever I get a chance.


Ingredients:

4 ripe avocados

1 (8 ounce) package of cream cheese, softened

½ cup of Hellmann’s Mayonnaise

½ cup of sour cream

1 med-small onion (finely chopped)

6 cloves of garlic (finely chopped)

Lemon or lime juice, about ½ of a fresh one or a few squirts from the bottle

Pepper

Salt


Directions:

Cut avocados in half. Remove seed. Scoop out avocado from the peel, put in a mixing bowl and mash. Add next 5 ingredients and mix together. Add salt, pepper and lemon or lime to taste. Taste great served with lime tortilla chips.


Adding a couple of seeds to the guacamole helps keep the avocadoes from turning brown.


This recipe is easily altered to suit your taste. I usually add a little more cream cheese and sour cream and leave out the mayonnaise. I also usually use garlic salt, instead of cloves.
