Guacamole Ingredients

Method

Guacamole Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Avocados

    Cut the ripe avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Mash the Avocados

    Using a fork or a potato masher, mash the avocado until you reach your desired level of creaminess.

  3. 3

    Add Lime Juice

    Pour the lime juice over the mashed avocado to add flavor and prevent browning.

  4. 4

    Season with Salt

    Sprinkle salt over the mixture and stir well to combine.

  5. 5

    Incorporate Vegetables

    Add the diced onion, diced tomato, chopped cilantro, and minced jalapeño (if using) to the bowl.

  6. 6

    Mix Thoroughly

    Gently fold all ingredients together until evenly mixed, being careful not to over-mash.

  7. 7

    Taste and Adjust

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

  8. 8

    Serve

    Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl and enjoy with tortilla chips or as a topping for your favorite dishes.
