Chipotle Guacamole (Copycat)
Chipotle Guacamole combines ripe avocados with lemon and lime juices, red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño for heat. The smooth, creamy texture melds with fresh aromatics and a balanced salty finish. It closely replicates the flavor profile found at Chipotle, served here with tortilla chips.

Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine avocados, lemon juice, and lime juice. Mash until smooth. Stir in onion, cilantro, and jalapeños. Season to taste with salt (I like 1/2 teaspoon). Serve with chips.
- To refrigerate, place in a bowl and press plastic wrap directly on top of the entire surface of the guacamole so no part is exposed to air.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Adding jalapeño seeds will increase the heat level to more closely match the original Chipotle guacamole.
- Press plastic wrap directly onto the guacamole surface when refrigerating to minimize browning.
