ALTON BROWN’S GUACAMOLE RECIPE – Small Recipe
I got this recipe off of the Food Network website. It was on the Good Eats episode, Dip Madness. I adjusted the directions a little bit from the original recipe. I also didn’t add the cayenne that it called for and insted added some red pepper flakes. Number of servings is approximate. Cooking time is setting time (to let the flavors fully develop).
