Ingredients

• 3 ripe Hass avocados
• 1/2 small red onion, finely diced
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
• 1-2 jalapeños, seeded and minced (adjust to taste)
• 1 lime, juiced (about 2 tablespoons)
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (or to taste)
• Pinch of black pepper (optional)
• Optional: 1 small Roma tomato, seeded and diced

Instructions

1. Prepare your ingredients: Finely dice the red onion, mince the jalapeño, chop the cilantro, and dice the tomato (if using).
2. Halve the avocados: Carefully cut each avocado in half lengthwise around the pit. Twist the halves apart. Remove the pit by gently tapping it with the blade of a chef’s knife and twisting, or scoop it out with a spoon.
3. Scoop out the flesh: Use a spoon to scoop the avocado flesh into a medium mixing bowl.
4. Mash the avocado: Using a fork or a potato masher, gently mash the avocado to your desired consistency. Some prefer it chunky, others smoother.
5. Combine ingredients: Add the diced red onion, minced jalapeño, chopped cilantro, and lime juice to the bowl with the mashed avocado.
6. Season: Sprinkle in the kosher salt and black pepper (if using). If adding tomato, incorporate it now.
7. Mix thoroughly: Gently fold all the ingredients together until well combined. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed, adding more salt, lime juice, or jalapeño for extra kick.
8. Serve immediately: Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl and serve with your favorite tortilla chips, vegetable sticks, or as a topping for tacos and burritos.
