Killer Guacamole
"Avocados need to be extremely ripe. They should be blackish brown in color and soft to the touch. In most cases I have often thought that the avocado looks like it's bad rather than fresh. But the riper the avacado the sweeter the taste."

Fabulous! I did halve the recipe (except for the spices), since only my husband and I like guacamole. Had to leave out the cilantro. Discovered too late I didn't have any.
