This recipe makes quite a lot. Cut it in half for a reasonable amount.

4 ripe Haas avocados
3 T freshly squeezed lemon juice (1 lemon)
8 dashes hot pepper sauce
½ cup small diced red onion (1 small onion)
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 t kosher salt
1 t pepper
1 medium tomato, seeded and small diced

Cut the avocados in ½, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh out of their shells into a large bowl (you can use your hands). Immediately add the lemon juice, hot pepper sauce, onion, garlic, salt and pepper and toss well. Using a sharp knife, slice through the avocados in the bowl until they are finely diced. Add the tomatoes. Mix well and taste for salt and pepper.
