Pico de Gallo Guacamole


Gerry makes a delicious guacamole. There are no real measurements but use this as a guide, doubling as necessary.  This makes about 2 cups.

2 whole firm ripe avocados (you can use frozen chunks* if your avocados aren't very good when you slice into them. See photo.)

2 large ripe red tomatoes, chopped

1/4 red onion, diced

2 T. lime juice, preferably from fresh limes

Healthy bunch of chopped fresh cilantro, to taste

Salt to taste

Simply mix the avocado chunks, tomato, onion, cilantro, lime juice and salt and serve with chips!

*I take a bag of ripe, but not overripe avocados and skin and pit them. Mash them up, still chunky. Spoon them with a scoop onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment. Place the sheet in the freezer for a few hours. Take them off the parchment by frozen scoop and put in a large plastic tub, or in a Ziploc bag. Store in freezer until you want to use. Chunk them us still frozen if using for guacamole.
