Guacamole is a quick and easy snack that can be made in no time. Tomato and jalapenos add a bit of texture to the creamy avocado. Fran's version uses lemon juice which adds acidity and is not as tart as more traditional lime juice. Have lots of tortilla chips handy... this killer guacamole recipe won't last long. We ate all of it within an hour. The first time I made this I couldn't believe how incredibly simple it was. This recipe hit the nail on the head and the avocado flavor really shines.

Ingredients :
- 4 large avocados, ripe
- 2-3 large lemons, halved, remove seeds
- 1 1/2 teaspoon(s) garlic salt, to taste
- 1-2 - jalapeno, minced
- 1 medium tomato, chopped
- 1/8 teaspoon(s) cayenne pepper, optional
Intructions :
- Halve the avocados and remove the pits, but set them aside
- Remove from the skin with a big spoon and very coarsely chop the avocado into big pieces. Place chopped avocado and minced jalapeno in a medium bowl
- Squeeze the lemon juice over the mixture
- Sprinkle liberally with garlic salt adjusting to your taste
- Stir, gently mashing some of the avocado pieces
- Add chopped tomato at the end, stirring just until combined
- Add 2 of the avocado pits back into the bowl (this really helps keep guacamole from turning brown). Serve chilled
- If desired, add extra cayenne or jalapenos for more kick. You can add more lemon juice if you like a little more tartness too.
