Summer bliss

I know that people are polarized about cilantro. To some, it is divine. To some I've heard it tastes like soap. Those poor, poor people. To me, cilantro is the freshest taste of summer - impossibly yummy.



Guacamole

  • 5 soft Haas avacados

  • 2 1/2 limes

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 3/4 cup onion, diced

  • lots and lots of cilantro (maybe 1/4 cup or so)

  • 3 roma tomatoes, diced

  • 1 1/2 heaping tsp minced garlic

  • a couple shakes of cayenne pepper


In a medium bowl, mash together the avocados, lime juice, and salt. Mix in the rest of the ingredients. Refrigerate for at least an hour for best flavor.

*if serving with salted tortilla chips, watch the salt in the guacamole. you may want to put less in.
