I love everything avocado. It contains good healthy fat. I usually cut avocado in half, sprinkle with salt and fresh black pepper and eat it by scooping it out with a spoon – makes a healthy snack. Off course it has to be Haas Avocados. From time to time I love to make Guacamole and I’ve always gotten favorable comments from anyone who eats it. I welcome your feedback on this recipe.
Garlicky Guacamole
This is a very garlicky flavored guacamole with lime juice. A hit every time I make it and it's served with corn chips. You can keep it healthier by using endives instead of chips. Or simply eat it with a fork - no chips needed.
