If you enjoy Mexican cuisine chances are you are familiar with Guacamole. Guacamole is made by mashing ripe avocados. Making guacamole at home is the only way to go; the stuff you will buy in the store is disappointing and most of the time, just flat out bad for you. The only real work here is the prep work which includes a lot of dicing. This recipe gets most of its spice from cilantro and cayenne pepper. You can adjust the amount of these ingredients depending on how spicy you want your guacamole to be. Guacamole makes a great dip to go with chips or it also goes great on tacos or other types of Mexican dishes. Enjoy.
