Recipe Note

Wanted to give some Asian influences to guacamole one night, so I found some random items in the fridge and pantry and whipped it up. It looks ugly upon completion, but has definite delicious flair! Use with chips, enchiladas, or tacos, or whatever else you think benefits from guacamole. Add spices to your liking.
