Avocado Guacamole in the Magic Bullet

GREAT Guac dip with Tortilla chips or on top of nachos!
from
Apron Madness

I used the large cup with cross blade on my Magic bullet. Cut the semi soft avocado in half, take out pit & spoon out the avocado. Add a clove of garlic, a sqirt of lemon juice & squirt of lime juice. A bit of salt & calantro (optional). Pulse blend. Add cut up tomatoes (I like vine ripe cherry) & chopped Green Chilies, Pulse chop. Put in a bowl & stir in some sour cream & a little salsa (optional) to taste.

Dip Tortilla or Pita chips or add to the top of Nachos or burritos.
