I used to hate guacamole, but now I love it. I've recently learned that Whole Foods has great, ripe avocados, and I made some delicious guac with them. Here is my recipe, which isn't really a recipe, but an adaptation from America's Test Kitchen Family Cookbook (best.cookbook.ever):
Guacamole:
Avocados (2 or3)
Red onion (1/4 of a small onion)
Cilantro (1/4 cup or estimate)
Lime Juice (1-2 tablespoons)
Garlic (1 clove)
Salt (to taste)
Put all in a bowl, mix it together, and add more of whatever you think it needs. Not much of a science to it. Sometimes I put tomatoes in it, too. Dip your chip and enjoy! (side note and wish: I wish they sold cilantro in smaller bunches, or pre-packaged, like they do for mint/basil/chives -- because I hate chopping it, and I also hate wasting most of it, which usually happens...).
Use this recipe for Cinco de Mayo on May 5!

Yum I love guacamole and the America's Test Kitchen book. It is the one I use most often for sure. Trader Joe's has little frozen cubes of herbs and I like the cilantro one a lot for the same reason you mentioned. They also have basil and garlic.
