Tomatillo Guacamole

I don’t like hot spice in my guacamole, so this was too spicy for me. I added more line juice and salt. Next time I would leave out the pepper flakes and pepper sauce.

We really did not care for this. The tomatillos added a very different taste that does not belong in guacamole. I'm always willing to try something new or different, and this is different.

I was very impressed with this even before I served it. You could just tell as you chopped up the ingredients and mixed them up that you were going to be in for something good. I did tinker with it a little though, but more just to personalize it to our tastes. I left out the "hot" stuff which Hubs doesn't tolerate well. I backed off on the onion a little so it wouldn't overwhelm, added minced garlic, a finely chopped jalapeno pepper, a small amount of fresh cilantro, and about 3/4 tsp. of cumin, all flavors I typically enjoy in traditional guacamole. I also chose to leave the avocados a little chunky rather than completely mashing them. It took a fair amount of chopping for this recipe, but it was worth it. I served it for a dinner get-together and everyone had at it. A real winner.

I had no idea if I'd like this, but I really did! Great flavor and the tomatillo's were perfect in this!! Be sure to chop them really small dice so you don't get huge chunks. I also added a little extra red pepper flakes. Yummy guac!

Yum! This is very tangy and good guacamole. Definately something out of the ordinary, the tomatillos really add a nice flavor in there. Make sure to get nice deep green tomatillos when making the guacamole. I also added about 1/2 teaspoon of cumin. Thanks for sharing the great recipe, ill be making this one again!
