Avocado Spread or Guacamole

A good holiday touch is a bit of pimiento or a slice of stuffed olive.

I. Pare:

Mash the pulp with a fork. Add:
Onion juice and lemon juice
Salt
(Tomato pulp—a very small amount)
Heap this on small crackers or toast. Garnish with:
Paprika and parsley

II. Have ready a combination of:
1 peeled, seeded, chopped ripe tomato
1 finely chopped scallion:
2 inches green
(1/2 seeded, chopped green pepper)
½ teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon or lime juice
½ teaspoon coriander
Salt and pepper
Add to the above, just before spreading:
2 mashed ripe avocados
