Guacamole Ingredients
- 3 ripe avocados
- ½ small yellow onion, finely diced
- 2 Roma tomatoes, diced
- 3 tablespoons fresh cilantro, finely chopped
- 1 jalapeno pepper, seeds removed and finely diced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 lime, juiced
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Prepare the Avocados: Slice the avocados in half, remove the pit carefully, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.
- Mash the Avocado: Use a fork to mash the avocado to your preferred texture—either chunky or smooth.
- Mix Remaining Ingredients: Add the finely diced onion, diced tomatoes, chopped cilantro, minced garlic, jalapeno, lime juice, and sea salt into the bowl. Stir everything together evenly.
- Taste and Adjust: Taste the guacamole and add extra salt or lime juice as needed to balance flavors.
- Serve: Serve immediately with tortilla chips or as a topping for your favorite dishes.
Notes
- For a spicier guacamole, leave some jalapeno seeds in.
- Use ripe avocados for the creamiest texture.
- To keep guacamole from browning, press plastic wrap directly onto the surface and refrigerate.
- Feel free to add a pinch of cumin or a splash of hot sauce for extra flavor.
- Serve fresh; guacamole is best enjoyed within a few hours of making.
