Notes
This recipe was inspired by Taste of Home.If adding optional jalapeno, slice the top off then slice it in half. Remove the seeds and membrane from the jalapeno, then dice the jalapeno. Be careful not to touch your eyes after dicing the jalapenos. Mix jalapeno into the guacamole at the same time you are adding the onions.
