I'm not a huge fan of avocado, but I know it's good for me, so when they were on sale at my local grocery store, I decided it was time to make friends and make a bunch of guacamole to figure out which one we would like best.

Here's the second recipe I tried, a raw variety.

This is my entry for this week's Hive account@foodfightfriday challenge.

Guacamole Salsa

Prepare:

• 2-3 tomatillos depending on size
• 1-2 hot peppers depending on heat
• 1 clove garlic

I used 1 serrano pepper as I'm not a fire-lover.
You might also add some cilantro if you like it (we don't.)

Blend with:

• the flesh of 3 avocados

Stir in:

• 4-6 Tablespoons of crème fraiche or sour cream
• salt and pepper to taste
• other seasonings as desired

Serve with pork rinds, tortilla chips, etc. as a dip or layer onto a taco salad...
