MAKES APPROXIMATELY 6 CUPS, OR 12 SERVINGS

My friend Barbara Swanson shared her recipe with me and says, "I think the reason most people like my guacamole is that I do not overpower it with either too much or too large chunks of onion. That's why it is important to finely mince the onion. All ingredients are approximate, start with less and add more to taste. The size of the avocados varies, so adjust amounts accordingly, Also, if you are serving this with very salty chips, cut down on the salt."
