Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 whole avocados (ripe)
- 1 whole lime
- 0.25 cup red onion
- 1 whole roma tomato
- 2 tablespoons cilantro (fresh)
- 1 whole jalapeño pepper
- 1 clove garlic
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Juice the lime and add it to the bowl to prevent the avocado from browning, stirring gently to coat.
Dice the red onion finely and add it to the bowl.
Chop the roma tomato into small pieces, discarding the seeds if you prefer a less watery guacamole. Add to the mixture.
Finely chop the fresh cilantro and add it to the bowl.
Mince the jalapeño (remove seeds for less heat) and garlic, and mix both into the guacamole.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste, adjusting as needed.
Mash the ingredients together with a fork or potato masher if you prefer a chunkier texture, or use a spoon for a smoother consistency.
Serve immediately with your favorite dipping chips or as a topping for your favorite dishes. Enjoy your 'Guacamole at the Cottage!'
