Albuquerque Delight
This is a classic version of 7 layer dip, but of course
with a layer of green chiles. A never-fail appetizer and
easy to make.

onion, if available)

12x8x2 glass dish
or a 10-inch glass pie dish.
Combine mashed avocados, lemon juice,
onion,
and garlic salt and spread over bean layer. Add layers of sour

Chunky Guacamole
This is a very basic, simple recipe, easy to prepare. The bell pepper
adds a nice crunchiness. To make it especially colorful, use yellow
or orange bell pepper.
This is the kind of recipe that I usually adjust the
proportions of the ingredients to taste.
INGREDIENTS:
1-2 large ripe avocados
1/3 cup green chiles
1 medium tomato
1 small onion (about 1/3 cup diced)
1 small bell pepper
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Salt to taste
PREPARATION:
Chop all ingredients fine. Do not mash. Mix together with the
lemon juice and add salt to taste. Serve as a dip or as a salad
with lettuce
and corn chips.
Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Makes: about 2 cups
