Description
Serve with tortilla chips or as a side with tacos, enchiladas, burritos, or fajitas.

Preparation
Halve and pit avocados.  Scoop out the flesh with a tablespoon into a mixing bowl.  Mash the avocados with a fork, leaving them somewhat chunky.  Add the remaining ingredients, and fold everything together to gently mix.  Lay a piece of plastic wrap right on the surface of the guacamole so it doesn’t brown and refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.

Note:  If you like less heat, seed the peppers before chopping.
