Notes
- Avocado Quantity - If you are looking to make guacamole for 4 you will need 2 avocados.
- Mix-ins - If I want to get fancy I'll add 1 tablespoon of minced cilantro and 1 tablespoon of minced plum tomatoes.
- Spicy - If you like your guacamole spicy add in 1-2 tablespoon of fresh minced jalapeno for extra kick.
- Serving Size - Serving size is based on 2 tablespoons of guacamole
- Plain Guacamole - Omit the lime and the onion and simply mash the avocado with the salt for a less fragrant guac.
