Method
Main
Prepare avocados
Wash the avocados, then slice each avocado lengthwise around the pit. Twist halves apart, remove the pit with a spoon or carefully with a knife, and scoop the flesh into a medium mixing bowl.
Mash and season
Using a fork or potato masher, mash the avocado to your preferred texture (smooth or slightly chunky). Immediately add the fresh lime juice and olive oil; stir to combine. Add sea salt and black pepper, taste, and adjust seasoning as needed.
Optional Add-ins and Garnish
Finish and serve
Transfer avocado mixture to a serving bowl. Sprinkle crumbled cotija or feta and red pepper flakes on top if desired. Serve immediately with toasted bread or tortilla chips. If you must hold it for later, press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the avocado to minimize browning and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.
