guacamole with corn chips

I make guacamole quite often because it's so easy and cheap! I like to snack on avocados sliced in half with sprinkles of sugar, but when the avocado is too ripe, guacamole is perfect. My brothers always steal some when I make it, but I usually make only one large avocado's worth since it can turn brown fast [no preservatives!], and I like to keep them craving for more.
Ingredients:
- one avocado
- one tomato
- one onion
- one lime
- cilantro
- black pepper and sea salt

I buy sweet onions, tomatoes, limes, and chips at the store. The avocados are fresh from my parent's garden. For one avocado, I make a very small serving of guacamole, the perfect snack for one. Only use a small slice or so of onion, chopped finely. I don't like too much onion in my guac, but you can add more to your liking! I also only use about 1/4 of the tomato and 1/3 of the lime. You can save the ingredients for more guac later upon request!  Sprinkle some black pepper and sea salt accordingly for an extra kick, and add the avocados. I usually halve the avocado, and cut it into chunks, and mash it with a fork into the mix. Eva Longoria says that she adds cilantro into it as well. I never thought about that, and I LOVE cilantro! Just a handful of the leaves chopped somewhat well makes the perfect addition to a simple recipe. Enjoy!
