Easy Guacamole

Easy Guacamole combines ripe avocado with fresh lime juice and spices including garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, kosher salt, and chopped cilantro. The avocado is mashed to adjustable texture, allowing for creamy or chunky consistency. This quick preparation highlights the creamy and slightly tangy flavor characteristic of guacamole, ideal for immediate serving as a dip or accompaniment.

Description

This guacamole recipe starts by tossing peeled, pitted ripe avocados with fresh lime juice to prevent browning and add brightness. Garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, and kosher salt are stirred in to lend subtle savory and smoky notes. The mixture is mashed to preference, from chunky to smooth, giving control over the final texture. Fresh cilantro is folded in last to add a herbaceous, fresh contrast. Ready immediately after mixing, this guacamole pairs well with tortilla chips, tacos, or as a fresh sandwich spread.
