Main Ingredients
- 3 ripe avocados
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (natural)
- 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup chopped red onion
- 1 minced jalapeño
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (natural)
Instructions
- Prepare the Avocados: Slice the ripe avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Use a fork to mash them gently, leaving a few chunks for texture.
- Add Fresh Lime Juice (natural): Pour in the lime juice to brighten flavors and keep the avocado from browning as you continue mixing.
- Mix in Vegetables and Herbs: Stir in diced tomatoes, chopped onion, minced jalapeño, and fresh cilantro until evenly combined, ensuring the colors and textures are well-distributed.
- Season to Perfection: Sprinkle salt, pepper, and garlic powder (natural) over the mixture, tasting as you go to achieve that perfect balance of flavors.
- Final Stir and Serve: Give everything one last gentle stir and your guacamole is ready to enjoy with chips, veggies, or any creative snack idea you have.
Notes
- Choose avocados that yield slightly to gentle pressure but are not too soft for the best texture.
- Always use fresh lime juice (natural) to enhance both flavor and color.
- Do not over-mash; keep some chunks for a satisfying texture.
- Adjust the jalapeño quantity gradually to control heat level.
- Serve guacamole immediately for the freshest and most vibrant flavor.
