Fresh, healthy, easy, delicious. . .homemade guacamole! With leftover sweet peppers sitting around from the weekend and no more Grilled Sweet Pepper and Summer Garden Vegetable Pasta Salad left to add them to, I just had to use them in this guacamole!
The kick from the sweet pepper is just enough to taste without overpowering the subtle flavors of the avocados and tomato and also adds some texture to this creamy dip!
A perfect summer side or appetizer!
