I would just make a basic guacamole with them.

Mash them up and add some diced onions lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste.

It is so good that way with tortilla chips or in tacos or even on a sandwich or burger.

Oh and save the seeds because if you put them in any leftover and seal it tight they help it from turning brown.

I'd just make regular guacamole. Dice the avocados into chunks, mix with a small diced red onion, one clove of garlic, a tablespoon of chopped cilantro, juice from a lime, and salt & pepper to taste. Mix well and serve with tortilla chips (I serve them with blue corn tortilla chips, awesome contrasting colors.)

Edited to add: I also put in a few dashes of hot sauce (like tobasco or Crystal). we like it tangy.

If you don't want a spicy guacamole, try this recipe, modified from an Alton Brown recipe:

4 Haas avocados, halved, seeded and peeled
1 lime, juiced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 small tomatoes, seeded and diced
1 clove garlic, minced

In a large bowl, mash the avocado with the lime juice. Add the rest of the ingredients except for the garlic and tomatoes. Stir in the garlic and tomatoes. Adjust seasonings.

This is not hot or too spicy.

The secret to my guacamole is:
Worcestershire sauce! Just splash!
Yum, yum, yum!

This is pretty much what we do but we add tomatoes.

This is what we do. Just make sure you get chunky salsa

Sure...you can taste it as you go and add to taste. Personally I like a little kick.

I mash up the avocados with some salt, pepper, chopped, pickled jalapenos, some of the jalapeno juice, a little lime juice, some cilantro, and, if I have it, some tomato. Then mix in a small amount of sour cream to get it creamy.

Soooooooooooooooo good.
