Chunky Guacamole

After trying multiple guacamole recipes, I have learned that simple is almost always better.  This recipe came from a Better Homes and Gardens Special Interest Publications Ultimate Mexican 2010.  I made mine pretty much exactly the same but use a about half the recommended lime juice.  I like the lime as a preservative but I don't want it to overpower the taste of the avocado!

1/8 t ground black pepper
2 very ripe avocados, halved, seeded, peeled and coarsely mashed

In a bowl combine tomato, onion, lime juice, oil, garlic, salt and black pepper.  Gently stir in avocados.  Serve immediately or cover the surface with plastic wrap and chill for up to 1 hour.  Serve with your favorite tortilla chips.
