Incredible Guacamole image

Everyone loves my recipe for guacamole, adapted over the years from many others. It's thick, not runny, and very tasty. I always just make it by adding the ingredients to taste, but last time I measured everything and noted as I added small measurements of each ingredient and came up with the perfect blend. The only way I have found to successfully save any leftovers is in a sealed plastic bag with all the air sucked out (ie. a bag sealer with a vacuum)! It should keep in the fridge for a week or 2 months in the freezer. Note: the amount of salt and pepper is now competely up to you and your taste!
