SPICY AVOCADO DIP
RECIPE PROVIDED BY DIANA DESILVA
6 scallions, finely chopped
1-2 fresh, medium-hot green chilies (Jalapenos add a nice kick!)
2 garlic cloves, crushed and chopped
A handful of fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
2-3 ripe avocados (soft)
½ tsp. salt
Juice of 1 lime (3-4 tbs.)
1 large ripe tomato, halved, seeded and diced or 1 (8 oz) can tomatillos, drained
Mix the scallions, chilies, garlic and cilantro in a bowl. Cut the avocados in half lengthwise and discard the pits. Using a teaspoon, scrape the flesh away from the skins and mash it well while still in the skin. Add to the bowl together with salt and half the lime juice. Mix well, smooth the top of the guacamole and pour over the remaining juice. Put the diced tomato on top of the guacamole. Great with tortilla chips for dipping.
Enjoy!
