Ingredients

  • 3 avocados ripe
  • ½ small yellow onion finely diced
  • 2 roma tomatoes diced
  • 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro

  • ½ teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Slice the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop into a mixing bowl. 
  2. Mash the avocado with a fork and make it as chunky or smooth as you'd like.
  3. Add the remaining ingredients and stir together. Give it a taste test and add a pinch more salt or lime juice if needed.
  4. Serve the guacamole with tortilla chips.

Notes

  • Definitely use fresh limes rather than lime juice in a bottle. The flavor difference is worth it. And speaking of limes, I'm using Mexican limes which give about 1 to 2 tablespoons of juice. 
  • Make sure to read my tips above for keeping leftover guacamole green and fresh. It's truly amazing! And I store the leftover guacamole in these food storage containers.
  • Look for large avocados for this recipe. If you can only find small avocados, feel free to add one more!
