Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 whole Ripe Hass avocados
- 1 whole Lime
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 whole Roma tomato
- 0.25 cup Red onion
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro
- 1 whole Jalapeño pepper
- 1 whole Garlic clove
Instructions
Cut the avocados in half lengthwise, remove the pits, and scoop the avocado flesh into a medium bowl.
Roll the lime on the countertop with your palm to loosen the juice, then cut it in half and squeeze the juice over the avocados.
Add the salt and mash the avocado gently with a fork until you reach your desired consistency (chunky or smooth).
Dice the Roma tomato, finely chop the red onion, and mince the garlic clove. Add them to the bowl with the avocado.
Finely chop the cilantro and mince the jalapeño pepper (remove the seeds for less heat). Add these to the bowl.
