Guacamole

  • 5 ripe avocado
  • 1 large sweet onion, finely diced
  • 1 lemon
  • salt, to taste

Peel & pit each avocado; set aside in large bowl. Roll lemon on the counter (use some pressure here!) to help release juice, then cut in half and juice. Mash up the avocado, lemon juice, and salt (I usually use just over 1/2 tsp salt). You can use a potato masher, pastry knife, fork or even just your hands to mash everything together. Then add the onions, mix well, and put in the fridge to chill after you've sampled enough to be quite sure the mixture is just right. :)
