ever since i sampled the guacamole at Oyamel in DC, made table-side with a mortar and pestle, i have been making my own at home and LOVING IT.  it is so easy to make, and can be affordable when the avocados are in season.

i made the chips by slicing up some tortillas, brushing with evoo, sprinkling with sea salt, and broiling on each side on high for a minute.

• 2 ripe avocados (preferably Haas)
• juice of 1 lime
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• approx 1/3 T FINELY chopped onion
• 1/2 C canned diced tomatoes, drained
• pinch of cayenne pepper
• S + P

1. squeeze lime juice over avocado in small mixing bowl.  Use a fork to crush the avocado.
2. mix in remaining ingredients and salt and pepper to taste.
