Holy Guacamole

Avocado is my all time favorite fruit to work with. I love guacamole, especially when served with Mexican food. In fact, I love it so much that when I want a quick dip, guacamole to the rescue.
We usually have tortilla chips at home, that way it's easy to grate some cheese on top and throw it in the oven to melt the cheese. For a super fast fix, just use a microwave. Served with guacamole, it's just plain good.
Here is what I use. Enjoy!

Guacamole:

1 ripe avocado
a dash of lemon or lime juice
about 2 tbs. diced tomato
about 2 tbs. chopped onion
salt
pepper

Cut the avocado in half and remove the seed. Then peel it, it works well when you use a spoon to scoop out the fruit. Discard the seed and peel. Mash up your avocado with a fork then add a little dash of lemon or lime juice, add the onions and the tomato, stir. Season the mix with salt and pepper, to taste, and presto, guacamole.
 ( If you want to grow a nice plant out of the seed, you just have to place the seed heavy side down in a flower pot with some soil and cover it with a plastic bag. Keep it moist. It will take a long time before the seed breaks open and a new plant grows. Don't give up!)
