Ingredients
- 4 large Avocado
- 2 large Lime
- 1 cup (diced seeded) Roma Tomatoes
- 1 large (seeded and diced) Red Bell Pepper
- 1 large (seeded and diced) Yellow Bell Pepper
- 1 (seeded and minced) Jalapeño Pepper
- 1 cup (diced) Red Onion
- 1 tablespoon (chopped) Fresh Cilantro
- 1 clove (minced) Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Cumin
- 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 0.25 cup (extra virgin) Olive Oil
Directions
Step 1
Cut the avocados in half, remove the seeds, and use a knife to score the flesh into cubes. Scoop the avocado cubes out with a spoon and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Step 2
Cut the limes in half and squeeze the juice over the avocado cubes to prevent browning. Gently toss to coat.
Step 3
Add the diced roma tomatoes, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, minced jalapeño pepper, and diced red onion to the bowl.
Step 4
Sprinkle in the chopped cilantro and minced garlic.
Step 5
Season the mixture with cumin, kosher salt, and black pepper. Pour in the olive oil.
Step 6
Gently mix all ingredients together, being careful not to smash the avocado too much—aim for a chunky texture.
Step 7
Taste and adjust the seasonings as needed. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for up to 1 hour before serving.
