Guacamole with Tortillas and Vegetables

I had some avocados so I wanted to put them to good use. This made a nice meal. You could lots of different kind of vegetables and throw them on top of the guacamole. My son was asking for more after it was all gone. That was a good sign. He likes the homemade tortillas too. We love guacamole around here. :) This has some extras in it, to make it extra yummy. This is another light and easy meal.

2 ripe avocados
