Spicy Guacamole {Secret Recipe Club}

When I got my email for the Secret Recipe Club I eagerly browsed through my assignments site (More Please by Margie) and fell upon her guacamole recipe. My family and I are huge guac fans, so I immediately was drawn to this recipe.

Guacamole tends to be a 'taste as you go' recipe.  Everyone has their own variations and measurements.      

I've used many existing recipes and tons of my own creations but none have used hot sauce.  Seems like a given since jalapenos are widely used in guacamoles, alas, I've never heard of it...but so glad I did!

I used a combo of Tabasco and Pico Pica (hot sauce) and it turned out awesome!!

Thanks Margie for your inspiration!
