Avocado Dip

We broke out the Mexican food early even though Cinco de Mayo is still a few days away...  Mostly because this dip is awesome...and mostly because we currently have an awesome houseguest!  :)  This is a lighter, almost whipped, version of a guacamole.  So delicious that there are no leftovers to be found here!  


Avocado Dip
1 package of cream cheese (softened) (I used Neufchatel cheese)
2 avocados
1/4 cup white onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder or garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper sauce (red hot) (although I didn't have any and this turned out just fine)
1 cup tomatoes, chopped

Combine all ingredients until well blended.  Serve with your favorite tortilla chips (and margaritas!).  

Have a happy weekend!
