Guacamole Dip

Everyone needs to have a good guacamole recipe. This one is from my husband's co-worker. A perfect balance of avocado, tomato, jalapeño, cilantro, onion, and lime. We chose to leave ours chunky but you could also puree it if you like a smoother texture. Just make sure your avocados are nice and ripe. I recommend buying them at least 3 days in advance, and if they  ripen up before you need them, then just stick them in the fridge.
