- Place all the ingredients except the avacado in a non-reactive bowl and stir to mix. Cover and set aside until serving time. (You can make this up to 2 hours ahead. Cover it well and refrigerate until needed.) Right before serving, peel, pit and cut the avacado into small cubes; gently stir into the guacamole.
- To serve: Arrange the waffles on a large platter or pile them into a basket as you would chips. Spoon the guacamole into one bowl and the sour cream into another and encourage guests to put a dollop of each on a waffle chip and dig in.
