You have to love a good Guacamole. It is nice to be able to whip together a healthy dip that is vegan, dairy free, gluten free that can be prepared in less than 10 minutes. It is always a great starter for a supper club dinner party or quick cocktails by the pool.

The Guacamole development in Westhampton was started by my niece Katie Lawson Hudleston and furthered by my daughter Jennifer Kenny Begun. I don’t know if their development effort was fueled by culinary passion or Corona Light, but the result has become an oft shared and repeated recipe.
Guacamole Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 avocados
- 1 jalapeños (finely diced)
- 1 lime juiced
- 2 tbsp cilantro
- 2 t kosher salt
- 2 tbsp red onion diced

Instructions
- Scrape the semi soft avocado meat from the shell into a large bowl and then mash (I prefer to use a potato masher) into a chunky/smooth texture
- Add the jalapeño, cilantro, salt, garlic, and onion and stir together to get the desired consistency

Does the cilantro have to be fresh?
