Guacamole

Guacamole

3 medium avocados, scooped from the skins (about 1 1/4 C)
1 T fresh lime juice
1/2 -1 t fresh garlic, minced (to taste)
2 T finely minced onion
1/4 C sour cream
3-4 T diced tomatoes (optional)
kosher salt to taste
pepper to taste

Mash avocado with a fork in a small mixing bowl.  Add remaining ingredients and combine.  Add tomatoes at the end. Refrigerate in an airtight container, or cover with plastic wrap pushing down onto the guacamole, sealing out all air.  If possible, make about 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to mingle. (From Our Best Bites Cookbook)

**I love all guac, but particularly love one that isn't spicy.  Let the salsa have the heat, because I love the heat, but then the guac can cool it down!
