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
Use a fork or a potato masher to mash the avocado until it reaches your desired level of creaminess.
3
Add Lime Juice
Pour the lime juice over the mashed avocados and mix well to combine.

4
Chop and Add Vegetables
Finely chop the tomato, red onion, and cilantro. If using, finely dice the jalapeño and mince the garlic. Add all these ingredients to the mixing bowl with the avocado.
5
Season the Guacamole
Sprinkle the salt and black pepper over the mixture. Stir gently to combine all ingredients without over-mixing.

6
Taste and Adjust
Taste the guacamole and adjust the seasoning if necessary by adding more salt, lime juice, or optional ingredients to suit your flavor preference.
7
Serve
Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl and serve immediately with tortilla chips, fresh veggies, or use as a topping for your favorite dishes.
