1
Prepare the Avocados
Cut the ripe avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.
2
Mash the Avocados
Using a fork or a potato masher, mash the avocado to your desired consistency (smooth or chunky).
3
Add Lime Juice
Pour in the lime juice over the mashed avocados to enhance flavor and prevent browning.
4
Chop and Add Vegetables
Finely chop the red onion, tomato, cilantro, and optional jalapeño. Add them to the avocado mixture.
5
Season the Mixture
Add minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to the mixture. Stir until well combined.
6
Taste and Adjust
Taste the guacamole and adjust seasoning with additional salt, lime juice, or spices if desired.

Serve
Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl and enjoy with tortilla chips, tacos, or as a topping.
