Guacamole

Add tomatillos to the guac to get a tangy version. Its to die for.

Love the Cilantro and lime juice. I've been doing it this way since I had it in Mexico. For a fresh and spicy kick I use a kitchen rasp to grate in a fresh jalapeno and lime rind.

I also add the lime juice to the chopped onion and garlic a couple hours before I even cut into the avocados. The acid pickles/cooks them a bit and really cuts down on the garlic/onion breath afterwards.

and not the tastiest Guacamole, but an interesting one to set on the table as eye-catcher:

Good grief you are making my mouth water. I could live off of guac. and humus.
BTW Chipotle Tabasco gives a nice smokey kick.

I love guacamole! Years ago when I was pregnant, I would crave it. This was before I new how to make it. We lived near a Mexican food restaurant and I would buy it by the pint and just eat it with a spoon. Who needs chips?

It's great, and I love spreading on a sandwich instead of mayo or butter. Tastier and far healthier. Also great in a pita with some chopped up fresh veggies and some grilled chicken.

After reading this thread I have to send my husband out for guacamoli fixings.I make mine with:
Avocados, red onion, tomatos, cilantro, lime juice and sometimes a jalapeno.

Here's my recipe'...

Avocado, mashed
Sour Cream
Lime
Salt
Crystal or Louisiana or A&B hot sauce

Then I make my Salsa seperately, too many vriations to list.

A must to go with those is Cerviche'

And of course, Margaritas
