ANOTHER GREAT SALSA/DIP!

Here is another simple chips & dip idea.
This one is simpler than the Cowboy Cavier. 
Try them both and you decide which 
one you think is better. Enjoy.

Avacado Dip

INGREDIENTS  

  • 4 Avocados, chopped
  • 4 Roma tomatoes, chopped
  • Craisins (as much as you want - I think the more the better)
  • Cilantro (ditto)
  • Salt & Pepper
Combine all ingredients and pour a little olive oil over top.
