Contributing Chef- Abby Reibman- Author of The Desk and The Stove
Just because Cinco di Mayo has come and gone doesn’t mean you should put away this killer guacamole – use it all summer long for the most amazingly creamy dip. This recipe was my secret weapon for college BBQ’s and is now a staple at any house party. The Hostess Handbook suggests serving it with some tortilla chips and cold salted margaritas for the perfect party atmosphere!

4 avocados, smashed with salt 2 tbl sour cream3-4 tomatoes on the vine, concasse
1 large red onion, small dice
