Today is National Guacamole Day!

I LOVE Guacamole!  

And I make great guacamole, if I do say so myself.  First, of course, your Avocados have to be "just right."  I start by cutting them up so they'll be easier to mash.  I mash them with a potato masher

 Then I add Salsa Verde, made with Tomatillos.  By using that kind of salsa, rather than tomato-based salsa, your Guacamole doesn't turn brown nearly as quickly. 

Then I add chopped pickled jalapeños and chopped green onion and cilantro.  Then I add chopped garlic (the refrigerated kind), a dash of cumin (not too much) and lemon pepper to taste (be careful--it's salty).  

OK. That's my secret recipe. It gets rave reviews. I'll have to experiment with quantity and add this recipe to my recipe page, then, when I get my camera back, make a video of it.
