Waka Waka Quacamole

I loooove this guacamole recipe. It's perfect on any Mexican dish, or just for a snack with tortilla chips.

Storage tip: After this is made, you can refrigerate up to 3 days or so. Before putting it in the fridge, cover in saran wrap, pressing the saran wrap against the surface of the guac. Any air between the plastic and the guac will cause the guac to turn brown on the surface.

Waka Waka Quacamole

2 avocados, peeled
1/3 cup onion, chopped
1/2 jalapeno chile pepper, seeded and chopped fine
1 medium tomato, peeled and quartered
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 1/4 teaspoons sugar
1/4 cup sour cream

Prepare all ingredients. Place the avocados, onions, jalepeno, tomato, and lime juice in a food processor and process on pulse till blended. Add sugar and sour cream and mix well. This creates a very smooth guacamole. If you like it chunkier, hand mash all items with a fork.

Day two with my Crock-Pot Express (CPE), aka Instant Pot. Tonight, we are making Chicken Marsala, one of The Captain's favorites.
