My buddy Dave used to make the best guacamole for us, sitting around watching like a bunch of 24 episodes in a row after we were done working. He’s gone off to Georgia, and I miss him. So I thought, why not try and make it myself. I will admit, it’s was pretty good, but companionship flavors a dish sometimes and it’s hard to recreate. But this is pretty darn close…

Take a couple nice ripe, but not tooooo ripe avocados. Three works nicely.

After you cut and scoop out the green goodness, you take an add 2 or 3 whole cloves of fresh garlic. I like to use the press like he did, and don’t loose out on the pressed juice too! Mash it in with a fork and get the avacado nice and mushy. I suppose you can use a food processer, but it’s really not needed. Don’t overly process the avocado, or it will taste a little, well, weird.

I happen to like onion a good deal, so I had a little sweet onion to chop and add to the mix.  Only about half a small onion.  A lot of recipes have onion in them, so I added it.  Dave normally didn’t, but hey, why not?

Last, a good hardy pinch of Kosher salt.  I suppose you could use regular salt, but the coarse salt really tastes good in this.  Stir it all up good and grab a bag of chips, a friend, and hit the couch for a marathon of a good tv series on DVD…  that’s what life is all about…

Add it all at one setting because it will get dark and kind icky looking in the frig.  I guess you can add a teaspoon of lemon juice to stop this, but why would you want to save it when you can eat it all up?  It’s just so good.
