Salsa and Guac that won't dissapoint

Salsa Recipe (Courtesy of my mother-in-law):
1 large can of whole peeled tomatoes
(I used 4 fresh tomatoes and 1 small can of diced tomatoes but really you can use anything you have on hand, fresh or canned)
Juice of 1 lemon (more or less to taste)
1/3-1/2 bunch cilantro
1/2 onion
3-4 cloves of garlic (depending on how big they are)
Red Pepper Flakes
Salt
Throw everything in a blender and pulse. I blended it for too long and it came out a little too blended. I like it a little chunkier.

Guacamole
2-3 Avacadoes
1 tomato
1/4 red onion
1/3 bunch cilantro
Garlic Salt(or fresh garlic)
Juice of 1 lime (more or less to taste)
Salt
Pepper
A few dashes of green tobacco sauce (optional)

These are so delicious and easy. Go out and grab a bag of Guiltless Gourmet Chips (I found them at Raley's) and you will have a wonderful healthy appetizer for any party or just a yummy snack if your dinner turns out gross like mine did!
