Guacamole

For the first 23 years of my life, I was convinced I HATED guacamole. One day I had some at Chipotle and after that I was hooked. And avocados have the good kind of fat, so you can feel less guilty about eating it. Honestly, I don't even eat it with chips anymore, just with a spoon!

Let me show you how easy it is to make this healthy and fresh snack!

Guacamole
3 ripe avocados
1/4-1/2 cup onion, minced (red or white onions are fine)
1-2 cloves minced garlic
