Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Begin by gathering all the ingredients. Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl. Dice the tomatoes, chop the onion and cilantro, mince the garlic, and if using, finely chop the jalapeño pepper.

Mixing

  1. 2

    Mash the Avocados

    Using a fork or a potato masher, mash the avocado to your desired level of creaminess. For a smoother guacamole, mash thoroughly; for a chunkier texture, leave some avocado pieces intact.

  2. 3

    Add Other Ingredients

    Stir in the lime juice, salt, diced tomatoes, chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, and jalapeño pepper (if using). Mix until all ingredients are evenly combined.

Serving

  1. 4

    Taste and Adjust

    Taste the guacamole and adjust seasoning as needed. You may want to add more lime juice or salt based on your preference.

  2. 5

    Serve

    Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl and serve immediately with tortilla chips, fresh vegetables, or use as a topping for tacos and burritos.
