Simple Avocado dip recipe?

You've got everything you need for a fine guacamole - in Mexico they don't tart it up with anything other than what you've listed, with the exception of some cilantro. Don't add the cream cheese.

2 very ripe Hass avocados

2 cloves garlic, crushed or diced

2 medium tomatoes, diced

1/4 cup red onion, chopped fine

1 tsp. lemon juice

Dash cayenne pepper (optional)

Dash sea salt, to taste

Cut the avocados in half and remove the pits. Mash the avocados with a fork. If they are not very ripe, you will probably need to blend them in a food processor. You can also blend the garlic and tomatoes along with them, but I prefer a chunkier dip. When mashing the avocados by hand, I leave large chunks of avocado in the mix.

When you have the avocado, tomatoes, and garlic mixed, add in the lemon juice. In addition to adding to the flavor, it keeps the avocado from turning brown. Mix in the onions and spices to taste. You may want to play around with the amount of tomatoes used. Some people prefer a higher avocado-to-tomato ratio and vice versa.

Since avocado doesn't store well, it's best to make only as much as you're going to eat but if you do need to save it, squeeze some more lemon over the surface and wrap as tightly as you can with plastic wrap and keep in the fridge.

Enjoy!

Whisk together the lemon juice, garlic salt and pepper. If you have oil, whisk in about 1 or 2 tbls. Halves the avocados, take out the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Serve over lettuce with berries, celery, tomatoes, mozzarella and croutons with the lemon dressing for a light and California-esque salad.

Alternately, you can mash the avocados with the lemon, garlic and salt for a plain guacamole. If you have salsa or (diced) tomatoes, you can mix those in for some texture and juiciness. Serve with chips or nachos, or as a spread for a sandwich (I like it on my turkey sandwiches for a healthy alternative to mayo)

You sound like you have the makings for guacamole. When I make guacamole I chop some red pepper really fine, add it to the avocado and mash well, add a little minced garlic and lime juice. Sometimes chopped cilantro if I have it and some salt & pepper. You can easily substitute the lemon juice for lime juice. As for the peppers if you don't have any just skip it. It will still be good.

Add the 2 avacados, lemon and salt! Does taste better with tomatoes and onions, though.

No need for the cream cheese.
