Happy Guacamole Day!

September 16, 2011

Guacamole is by far my favorite condiment.  I enjoy it with chips, with tacos, or even on top of my burger.  This recipe is super easy and absolutely delicious.  To cut down on the spice, omit the serrano chile pepper or take out the ribs (white part) and seeds of the peppers.  Make sure to keep the guacamole covered so the avocados don't oxidize and turn brown.  Celebrate National Guacamole Day and Hispanic Heritage Month with this fabulous Mexican dip.
