Wow! Never made guacamole before, but my husband loves it... this was a hit. I added two serrano peppers in place of pepper flakes and hot sauce, which made it pretty spicy. I also added a good bit of cilantro, and I just blended it all up in the food processor. Good creamy consistency, great flavor! Will make again!

My husband loves guacamole so I decided to try this recipe. Although he will eat almost anything, he actually asked me to throw this away...Specifically he said the tomatillos made the guac sour. Sorry!

Wow! I have to say, this was my first guac, and it won't be my last. Very, very good. Even my Russian boyfriend and his friends who aren't accostomed to avocadoes ate it up! Five stars!

I've made this twice now and forgotten to pick up tomatillos at the store. It's so good like that, I'm almost afraid to add them now!

This almost didn't make it to the party it was intended for. We loved this! I had a couple of Jamaican hot peppers left from making the Haitian Red Beans and Rice from this site, so I added those instead of the red pepper flakes; they gave it a nice heat. Plus, I added the last 2 tbsp of some freshly made tomatillo salsa for some extra zing (and more heat). This was a hit and will definitely be added to my arsenal.

Cilantro really adds to this recipe. Tomatillas are great in any Mexican dip or salsa. I use them whenever I can find them. They keep well in the the refirg in a plastic bag with husks removed. they are really not tomatoes but are related to the goose berry family.

This is a delicious and seriously fresh dip. My hubby couldn't get enough of it! I made life easy and put all of the ingredients into the blender and used the pulse button. The consistency was creamy and a bit smooth. I added a whole jalapeno, some cloves of garlic, and some crushed red pepper on top of the hot sauce! We like it spicy! It came out delicious!

Everyone loved this and it was super easy to make if you don't mind a little chopping. I added a few sprigs of fresh chopped cilantro, and it was perfect. The tomatillo's make for an interesting yet subtle variation on your classic Guac!

This recipe is was a huge hit. I made it once and now it is what I bring to every party that I am invited to because everyone always asks for it. I normally throw a little bit more of the hot pepper sauce in or add a hoberano pepper to add a little more kick.

Oho! This is some decent guac! Husband was hankering for a chip and dip snack, so I decided to throw this together. I made this with the juice of one whole little lime, and also some cilantro that was hanging about in the fridge looking miserable. Very good. Thanks!

yummy. this was delicious. great call on both the cilantro and limiting the red onion. i only put half the onion in there and still woke up w/heinous breath. yikes! plus, i couldn't find roma tomatoes, so i just used plum. one thing i laid off of was the red pepper b/c my husband doesn't like spicy as much as i do, but i did put way more than 3 drops of tobassco in there. i also thought this would be a great thing for the food processor, but since no one else tried it, i did it the old fashioned way. chunky is nice, but i think i may try beating it to a pulp next time. tho my husband says he liked it chunky.

I love this recipe! My husband and kids don't like guacamole, but they scarf this down like you wouldn't believe! I brought some in to work for a pot luck, and ended up giving copies of the recipe to several people! I even grew tomatillos in my garden after trying this, and I had NEVER tried a tomatillo before! Wow!! Great recipe!!

I was not sure if everyone would like this and it ended up disappearing faster than anything else during the Super Bowl. The only change I made was reducing the amount of red onion I put in. This is very good!
