Introduction
My favorite Mexican restaurant serves a guacamole that's heavy on vegetables--and flavor. To slim it down even more, serve with carrots, celery and cucumber slices.

I used lime instead of lemon, 2 minced garlic cloves, cracked black pepper, 1/2 tsp. chili powder, only 1/2 the jalapeno, no bell pepper, and 1/2 tsp. crushed cumin seed, all ingredients coarsely chopped instead of mashed and creamy...this made it closer to what I usually make as my standard...yum! - 9/5/08

i make this with just a few changes, i use lime juice, red onion and leave the seeds in the jalapeno, b/c my hubby and i like the spice. but i never have put in green pepper, i will next time i make it though, upping the tasty veggy quotient sounds like a good way to go! make this if you love guac! - 1/30/09
