Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 whole ripe avocados
- 1 whole lime
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 whole small tomato
- 0.25 whole red onion
- 2 tablespoons cilantro
- 0.5 whole jalapeño (optional)
Instructions
Cut the avocados in half lengthwise, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium-sized bowl.
Use a fork to mash the avocado until it reaches your desired consistency—chunky or smooth.
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice over the mashed avocado. Stir to combine to keep it fresh and flavorful.
Add the salt and mix well.
Dice the tomato and red onion into small, even pieces. Finely chop the cilantro leaves. If using jalapeño, remove the seeds for a milder heat or keep them in for extra spice, then finely chop.
Gently mix the tomato, onion, cilantro, and optional jalapeño into the mashed avocado mixture.
Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt or lime juice as desired.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, tacos, or as a topping for your favorite dish. Enjoy!
