Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces ripe avocados
- 1 piece lime
- 2 tablespoons cilantro
- 0.25 cup red onion
- 1 piece jalapeño
- 1 clove garlic
- 0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons ground cumin
- 2 tablespoons pomegranate seeds (optional)
Instructions
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium-sized bowl.
Using a fork, mash the avocado until it reaches your desired texture (chunky or smooth).
Roll the lime gently on the countertop to release its juices, then cut it in half and squeeze the juice over the mashed avocado to prevent browning.
Finely chop the cilantro and add it to the bowl.
Dice the red onion and jalapeño, making sure to remove the seeds from the jalapeño if you prefer less heat. Add them to the mixture.
Mince the garlic finely and stir it into the bowl.
Halve the cherry tomatoes and gently mix them into the guacamole for a burst of sweetness and texture.
Add the salt and ground cumin, then taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
If you're feeling adventurous, fold in the pomegranate seeds for a burst of color and a hint of sweetness.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, or as a topping for your favorite dishes. Enjoy!
