Runnin' Rebels Ranch Guacamole - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 large Hass avocadoes, halved, pitted, and peeled
1 cup red onion, diced
3/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
3/4 cup red bell pepper, diced
1 large anaheim chili, diced
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 (1 ounce) package hidden valley ranch dressing mix
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Preparation

In a medium bowl, using a fork or potato masher, mash the avocados until chunky.
Add the onion, cilantro, bell pepper, and chile.
In a small bowl, combine the lime juice and package of Hidden Valley(R) Original Ranch(R) Salad Dressing & Seasoning Mix. Add to the avocado mixture along with the pepper and stir gently to combine.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the guacamole, pressing to eliminate any air pockets (this will help keep the guacamole from turning brown).
Serve at room temperature
*NOTE*.
This dip is best when made within 8 hours of serving, but it can be prepared up to 1 day in advance. Cover and refrigerate. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before serving, but keep covered until ready to serve.
