Guacamole

- 2
							 ripe avocados (if they are hard, ripen by placing in a paper bag with a banana
							 at room temperature for a couple of days - you may have to sacrifice the
							 banana)
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) chopped red onion
- 1 shallot, chopped
- 1
							 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
- 2 tbsp (30 ml) fresh lime juice
- 4
							 tbsp (60 ml) fresh cilantro, chopped
- salt and pepper to taste

Peel
							 the avocados, cut in half and remove the pit. Mash the avocados in a bowl and
							 add the other ingredients, mixing well. Chill until ready to serve. (Any
							 leftover actually freezes quite well.) Guacamole is a nice with nachos,
							 quesadillas or as a dip with tortilla chips.
