    Fresh Guacamole

    2 ripe avocados
    1 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
    1 small sweet onion chopped
    1/4 cup chopped parsley or cilantro
    1 clove garlic, minced

    Recipe



    Brown lean ground beef in pan. Add taco seasoning and
    water per directions on taco seasoning mix. Cover and cook
    according to directions. Push taco meat to one side of pan.
    Add refried beans other side of pan and spread out over the
    bottom of the pan opposite the taco meat. Cover pan and
    warm on low heat until refried beans are warm. Cover very
    large casserole dish with layer of tortilla chips. Place a
    few spoonfuls of taco meat and refried beans over chips.
    Add 1/4 of each cup of cheese over meat and beans. Sprinkle
    on a few black olive and jalapeno pepper slices and black beans.
    Add more chips and repeat process two or three more times with
    cheese as last ingredient reserving some of the black beans,
    olives and jalapeno pepper slices to sprinkle on the top of
    the nachos. Place casserole dish in 300 degree oven and heat
    until cheese melts throughout. Remove from oven and add
    shredded lettuce, tomatoes, onions and remaining black beans,
    olives and jalapeno pickle slices. Add a few scoops of sour
    cream and Fresh Guacamole and serve.

    Fresh Guacamole

    Peel avocados and remove pits, reserving one pit. Mash avocado
    meat in bowl. Add lime juice and mix. Add remaining
    ingredients, mix well, add avocado pit then cover and
    refrigerate for 30 minutes before using. Adding the
    avocado pit helps to prevent the Guacamole from turning
    brown.

    The Skinny: Use low fat cheese, low fat tortilla chips,
    the leanest ground beef you can find and low fat sour
    cream.
