Avocados are not called that here, they are called “pears.” At first this was quite confusing, considering we view pears as delicious fruits much like apples, but now it is much easier to transfer our thinking that pears = avocados (I almost wrote pears in the recipe, that would have been hilarious). Anyway, they are not very common throughout the country, but they are somewhat common in Linden. Recently a neighbor of ours gave us 6 massive “pears” and since we miss Mexican food with a vengeance, we needed to make some gorgeous Guac for our weekly “Taco Tuesdays.”
3 large avocados (# depends on how much you want to make)
4 cloves of chopped garlic
1 chopped medium onion
2 limes
2 tomatoes
*Salt
*optional
Take the avocado pits out of the fruit then remove the inside “meat” of the avocado, placing it in a bowl. Begin to mash the avocado pieces together adding the juice of one lime. Then, place the garlic and onion into the bowl while continually mashing the “meat”. Chop the tomato into smaller pieces then add it to the bowl. Add the juice of the second lime then mix well. Cover and place in fridge until it’s ready to use.
