Zesty Guacamole

Guacamole is an amazingly easy side dish to make yet it adds a hearty authentic texture to Mexican food. Avocados have a buttery flavor that makes for a great chip dip, or as a condiment on tacos or enchiladas.

Unlike bean dip, which can be bought in a store with high quality, guacamole really needs to be freshly made. Never fear though, as long as you can find a ripe avocado, this dish only takes 5 minutes to make.

Ingredients:

• 1 Ripe Avocado
• 1 Plum Tomato, diced.
  
• 1/4 Medium Spanish Onion, chopped.
• 1/2 Tsp Paprika
• 1/4 Tsp Cayenne Pepper (Adjust to Taste).
• 1 Large Lime, or 2 Key Limes.

Directions:

1. If the Avocado is not fully ripe, dice it into small cubes.
   
2. Add the spices and squeeze the lime onto the Avocado
3. Mash thoroughly with a fork.
   
4. Mix in the onions and tomatos. You can skip this step if you are using this dish as a condiment for Tacos since you will be adding other stuff to it.
5. Serve with tortilla chips and Salsa.
