Ingredients

• 3 whole Hass avocados
• 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice
• 0.25 cup Red onion
• 1 whole Jalapeño
• 1 clove Garlic
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 1 whole Tomato (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Start by halving the avocados and removing the pits. Scoop the flesh into a medium-sized mixing bowl.

Step 2

Finely chop the fresh cilantro and add it to the bowl with the avocados.

Step 3

Dice the red onion into small pieces and add it to the bowl.

Step 4

If you prefer a bit of heat, finely chop the jalapeño (remove the seeds for less spice) and add it to the mixture.

Step 5

Mince the garlic clove and add it into the bowl.

Step 6

Squeeze fresh lime juice over the ingredients and sprinkle in the salt and ground black pepper.

Step 7

Using a fork or potato masher, gently mash the ingredients together until you achieve your desired guacamole consistency (chunky or smooth).

Step 8

If using tomato, dice it finely, and fold it into the guacamole for added texture and flavor.

Step 9

Taste the guacamole and adjust the seasoning with more salt or lime juice if necessary.

Step 10

Serve immediately with tortilla chips or as a topping for your favorite dish. Store any leftovers in an airtight container with plastic wrap pressed against the surface to prevent browning.
