Alex's Chunky Guacamole


My roommate Alex makes some good spicy Mexican and Southern food. A few weeks ago he made delicious guacamole and let me share the recipe on here.

Ingredients:
5 ripe avocados, halved & scooped out
2 Roma tomatoes, large dice
1 red bell pepper, large dice
5 cloves garlic, peeled & minced
1 small onion, large dice
jalapeño peppers (1 with seeds, 3 without seeds depending on desired spice level), finely chopped
juice of ½ lemon or lime
salt & pepper to taste
dash of tabasco sauce
2 T olive oil

In a bowl add the avocado pieces and mash them up into large chunky pieces. Add the garlic, bell pepper,  onion, jalapeño, and tomatoes with juices. Add the lemon juice, tabasco, olive oil, & mix together with a fork or potato masher to keep the consistency chunky. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately with chips.

I love this guacamole because of the chunky pieces; you can distinctively taste flavors of tomato pepper, and avocado while eating. It is definitely something I will be making on my own!
