Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 whole ripe avocados
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 whole (finely chopped) small red onion
- 1 whole (diced) Roma tomato
- 1 whole (seeded and minced) jalapeño pepper
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) fresh cilantro
- 1 whole (minced) garlic clove
- 0.25 teaspoons ground cumin (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Slice the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.
Mash the avocado with a fork or potato masher until you reach your desired consistency—smooth or slightly chunky.
Add the lime juice and salt to the mashed avocado. Stir to combine and adjust the salt if needed.
Fold in the finely chopped red onion, diced Roma tomato, minced jalapeño (seeded for less heat), and minced garlic.
Sprinkle the chopped cilantro over the mixture and add the optional ground cumin and black pepper for extra flavor. Mix gently until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Taste and adjust seasonings (lime juice, salt, or pepper) as needed.
Cover the guacamole with plastic wrap, pressing the wrap directly onto the surface to prevent browning, and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled with tortilla chips, fresh veggies, or as a topping for tacos, toast, or grilled meats.
