Quick and Easy Guacamole

Quick and Easy Guacamole
In this instructable, I will explain how to make guacamole easily and quickly. It should only take about 10 to 15 minutes. There are only 7 ingredients needed to make this wonderful dip that goes well with soda and margaritas. It is also a good party-favorite. If you need to make something quick for a pot luck or party, this is a good choice.

Guacamole is a healthy snack. Because it is made of fruits, it is a delicious way to get a full serving of fruit. Also, it is low in cholesterol.

The avocados in guacamole are beneficial as a natural moisturizor for your skin, nails, and hair.

Ingredients:
• 2 avocados
• 1 can diced tomatoes (14.5 oz)
• 1 can green chilies (4.5 oz)
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• salt
• ½ white onion
• 1 garlic clove

When choosing the avocados at the grocery store, it is important to make sure to get ripe avocados. To determine if the avocado is ripe enough, gently squeeze it. If the avocado is firm, it is not yet ripe. If it squeezes too easily, it is too ripe. A ripe avocado will give some when squeezed.
If you are buying the avocados more than a couple of days before you will be making guacamole, it is okay to buy unripe avocados. Also, if you need to ripen the avocados, place them in a paper bag on your counter. If you need to slow down the ripening process, place them in your refrigerator.

Utensils:
• Cutting board
• Knife
• Tablespoon
• Teaspoon
• Can opener
• Garlic press
• Onion chopper
• Pastry knife or fork
• Mixing bowl
• Spoon or spatula
