Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3-4 avocados (scooped out of the skin and chopped)
  • 1/2 sweet yellow onion ( diced and sauteed or caramelized)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh garlic (minced or 1 clove of garlic minced*)
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1/2 lime (juice only)
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro (chopped or 1 t. dried cilantro flakes)
  • 1-2 teaspoon tequila (opt. but a great idea from our friend Susie G.)

Instruction

  • Heat 1 T butter and 1 T olive oil in a skillet.
  • Add onion and saute until softened and translucent.
  • Add chopped garlic (if using) and saute with the onion for 1 minute.
  • Sprinkle the onion and garlic with 1 t. brown sugar, cook for 1 minute.
  • Take the onion & garlic off the heat to cool before mixing into the avocado mixture.
  • Place all ingredients in a medium bowl.
  • Mash together gently, but leave the avocado a little chunky (at least that is how I love it).
  • *I use prepared garlic in a jar. Usually found in the produce department in most grocery stores.
