Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large avocados
- 1 medium lime
- 0.5 cup (finely diced) red onion
- 0.25 cup (finely chopped) cilantro
- 1 small (deseeded and minced) jalapeño
- 1 clove (minced) garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 medium (diced) tomato
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.
Mash the avocados with a fork to your desired consistency — smooth or slightly chunky.
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice over the mashed avocado to prevent browning and add zesty flavor. Mix well.
Add the finely diced red onion, chopped cilantro, minced jalapeño, and minced garlic to the bowl with the avocado. Stir to combine.
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste.
Gently fold in the diced tomato, being careful not to overmix to preserve the texture of the tomatoes.
Taste the guacamole and add more lime juice, salt, or pepper as needed.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, as a topping for tacos, or alongside your favorite dishes. Enjoy!
