Easy Avocado Salsa - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 Hass avocadoes
    1 roma tomato
    1 green onion (scallion)
    1 tablespoon fresh cilantro (or more to taste)
    1 tablespoon fresh lime juice (you can use lemon in a pinch)
    1 teaspoon cayenne, sauce can be adjusted to taste (I only use Frank's or Trappy's)
    1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
    1/4 teaspoon salt, adjust to taste
Preparation
    Scoop avocado out of skin and dice into 1/4 inch chunks.
    Dice a ripe Roma tomato into 1/4 inch chunks and place into bowl with avocado.
    Blend remaining ingredients into avocado-tomato mixture.
    Serve with chips or use as a garnish on anything from grilled fish to chicken breasts to omelets.
    NOTE: In a pinch I have used 2 tablespoons of my favorite salsa in the place of the tomato when I could not find any truly ripe tomatoes at the store.
    Avocado Trick: If your avocados are not ripe enough, place them in a paper bag to accelerate the ripening process. Trick also works for bananas.
