Appetizer – Guacamole Dip

3 ripe Avocados (ripe as in really dark in color and slightly soft when squeezed)
1 small onion, finely diced
1 medium tomato, diced
1 lime (juice of )
salt and pepper (to taste )
Tabasco sauce (optional)
Preparation:
Take avocados and cut into and around the circumference of the avocado's pit.
With both hands twist the two halves in opposite directions and pull apart
Remove the pit with a knife or a spoon.
Carve out the flesh of the avocado with a tablespoon.
Place avocados into a medium bowl and mash and stir until moderately creamy. I use a fork or a pastry blender.
Add diced onion and tomatoes to the avocados.
Add salt, pepper, tabasco sauce and lime juice and taste to see if seasoned enough to your liking.
In a separate small bowl put in 2 tablespoons of the dip.
Add 1 tbsp of sour cream and adjust your seasonings again.
Serve chilled with chips or add a little to your taco salad, tacos or fajitas.
