South of the Border Guacamole Dip
2 Haas avocados, peeled and cut into chunks (I put the chunks in a bowl and sprinkle them with a little lemon juice to keep them from turning brown while I get everything else prepared.)
juice of 1/2 lime
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt (Start with 1/4 teaspoon and taste when dip is done. Increase salt to 1/2 teaspoon, if desired.)
1/2 small red onion, finely chopped
1 Roma tomato, chopped
2 tablespoons cilantro, snipped
1 large clove of roasted garlic, minced. (I saute my garlic in olive oil until softened after mincing.)
1 tablespoon sliced jalapeno peppers from a jar, finely diced
dash of ground black pepper
In a small bowl, combine 2 chunked avocados, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and the juice of 1/2 lime. Mash with a fork until blended. It can be a little lumpy. Add 1/2 chopped red onion, 1 chopped Roma tomato, 2 tablespoons snipped cilantro, 1 clove of minced, roasted garlic, 1 tablespoon chopped sliced jalapeno peppers, and a dash of black pepper. Blend all ingredients together with a spoon. When blended, pour the Guacamole dip into a serving dish, and serve with restaurant style tortilla chips. This will go in your recipe box, if you don't already have a good recipe for Guacamole! Thanks for the request! Ole!!!

Why this Betty's South of the Border Guacamole Dip works for PCOS
Evening meals affect overnight insulin and morning blood sugar more than most women realise. Keeping dinner protein-forward and finishing eating at least 2-3 hours before bed gives your body time to clear glucose before the overnight fast, which improves morning fasting insulin readings.
