Notes

• You can substitue a little salsa instead of Tabasco sauce.
• If you omit the onions increase the crushed garlic.
• Yes, you can add diced tomatoes if you like!
• Do you want it spicer? Add diced jalapeno. (I recommend seeding them unless you love extra spicy.)
• Sometimes I garnish the guacamole with cilantro but, you can omit the garnish.
• Adjust salt to your taste but, remember most tortilla chips are salty.
