Guacamole, for Christmas--Why not? Our guacamole recipe that follows is a
beautiful presentation of holiday colors with all the flavor of the
American Southwest. You don't have to be a Cowboy to appreciate the texture

Mash avacados with a fork until smooth in a large bowl. Add garlic,
tomatoes, onion, lime juice, jalapeno, salt and sour cream or mayonnaise.
Blend well.
To serve, prepare a bed of lettuce leaves in a small, shallow bowl. Garnish
with paprika or 1/4 cup chopped cilantro and surround with tomato wedges if
desired. Serve immediately with tortilla or corn chips. Refrigerate to

Remember: Take caution when working with jalapeno peppers. Wear gloves to
chop the pepper and never touch any sensitive skin near your eyes or mouth
while preparing. Don.t get burned!
