Avocado dip
When it comes to guacamole, or any avocado-based dip for that matter, it’s important to consider individual tastes as well as regional preferences. For example, some families wouldn’t show up at a party without adding mayonnaise or sour cream to their avocado dip. I’m not a fan of mayo in my guac, so this batch was not one of my personal favorites. However, many people love this style of dip (and adding mayo makes it go further), so I’m including a popular recipe from a book of recipes from home economists and La Victoria called California’s Favorite Mexican Foods.
2 avocados
1 Tbsp. green onions (chopped)
1 Tbsp. lemon juice
1/4 tsp. chili powder
dash of Tabasco sauce
dash of salt
1/3 cup mayonnaise
Mash avocado and mix together all but the mayonnaise. Spread mayo on top, refrigerate and mix in the mayo before serving.
