Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large ripe tomatoes
- 2 pieces ripe avocados
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 2 tablespoons, finely diced red onion
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 teaspoon, minced jalapeño
- 1 piece, minced garlic clove
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Slice the tops off the tomatoes and set them aside. Use a small spoon to carefully scoop out the pulp and seeds, creating a hollow shell. Reserve the pulp for another use or discard. Set the hollowed-out tomatoes upside down on a paper towel to drain any excess liquid.
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.
Add the lime juice to the avocado and mash it with a fork or potato masher until smooth but slightly chunky.
Stir in the diced red onion, chopped cilantro, minced jalapeño, minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Turn the prepared tomatoes upright and fill each one generously with the guacamole mixture, using a spoon to pack it in gently.
Replace the tops of the tomatoes for presentation, if desired.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 1 hour before serving. Enjoy!
