Tip

Keep Guacamole Fresh

I like to make guacamole ahead of time for my favorite chicken quesadillas. I’ve found that if the avocado pit is added to the guacamole and the dish is covered, the guacamole retains its pretty, green color. —Pam Ubl, Coon Rapids, Minnesota

I liked the recipe a lot, although I'd add more salsa for a little more zip! A few droops of Cholula sauce ( found in mexican section in your grocery store) is awesome. This is good spread over the top of a quesadilla made with reduced fat cheese & a little of the Cholula sauce sprinkled to taste, yummmm!

Hmmm...How about using 2 avacados, 1 tsp of sea salt, juice of 1/2 a lemon or lime,2 tbls. of finely chopped onion and 1 small tomato chopped fine. As a finish, add one or two drops of tabasco. MMMMMMM.
