Guacamole 

from Ina Garten on the Food Network

Ingredients:

4 ripe Hass avocados

3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (1 lemon)

8 dashes of hot pepper sauce (I use Tabasco)

1/2 cup small-diced red onion (1 small onion)

1 large garlic clove, minced

1 teaspoon of kosher salt

1 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper

1 medium tomato, seeded, and small-diced (I use Roma)

Directions

Cut the avocados in 1/2, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh out of their shells into a large bowl. (I use my hands.) Immediately add the lemon juice, hot pepper sauce, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper and toss well. Using a sharp knife, slice through the avocados in the bowl until they are finely diced. Add the tomatoes. Mix well and taste for salt and pepper.
