Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 whole avocados
- 1 whole lime
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cup red onion
- 2 tablespoons cilantro
- 1 whole jalapeño
- 6 whole cherry tomatoes
Instructions
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Mash the avocado with a fork until it’s mostly smooth but still chunky, depending on your texture preference.
Slice the lime in half and squeeze the juice into the avocado mixture, being careful not to let any seeds fall in.
Add salt to the avocado and lime juice mixture and mix until combined.
Finely dice the red onion, chop the cilantro, and mince the jalapeño (remove seeds for less heat). Add these ingredients to the bowl.
Slice the cherry tomatoes into small pieces and gently fold them into the guacamole.
Taste the guacamole and adjust salt or lime juice as needed.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, or use as a topping for tacos, burritos, or nachos.
