Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large Hass avocados
- 1 medium Lime
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 cup Red onion, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped
- 1 small Jalapeño, minced
- 1 medium Roma tomato, diced

Instructions
Cut the avocados in half lengthwise and remove the pits. Scoop the flesh into a medium mixing bowl.
Mash the avocado with a fork until it reaches your desired texture (chunky or smooth).
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice over the mashed avocado. Mix well to combine and prevent browning.
Stir in the salt to season the base of the guacamole.
Add the finely chopped red onion, cilantro, jalapeño, diced tomato, and minced garlic to the avocado mixture. Gently fold everything together until evenly combined.
Taste the guacamole and adjust the seasoning as needed (add more salt or lime juice if desired).
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, as a topping for tacos, or as a side dish.
