Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 whole ripe avocados
- 1 whole lime
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 whole small red onion
- 8 whole cherry tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 whole jalapeño pepper
- 1 whole garlic clove
- 2 tablespoons toasted pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
- 0.25 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Roll the lime on your countertop to release its juices, then cut it in half and squeeze the juice over the avocado. This prevents browning and adds zest.
Add the salt and use a fork to mash the avocado to your preferred consistency (chunky or smooth).
Finely dice the red onion and cherry tomatoes, then stir them into the mashed avocado.
Chop the cilantro leaves and finely mince the garlic and jalapeño (remove seeds for less heat). Add these to the mixture along with the ground cumin.
Stir everything together until evenly combined. Taste and adjust salt and lime juice if needed.
Sprinkle the toasted pumpkin seeds (pepitas) on top for a nutty crunch and drizzle with a touch of olive oil.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, fresh veggies, or as a topping for tacos and burritos.
