Ingredients

Servings
  • 5 avocado ripe
  • 2 Roma tomato diced
  • 1 red onion diced, small
  • 1 ½ lime juiced
  • ¼ cup cilantro fresh, snipped
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 cloves garlic pressed

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mash avocados with potato masher until desired consistency. I like to leave lots of chunks in my guacamole.
  2. Add diced tomatoes, diced onion, lime juice, cilantro, salt and garlic. Mix completely.
  3. Cover and refrigerate for an hour to allow flavors to blend. Serve with tortilla chips and enjoy (I love the blue corn tortilla chips)!

Notes

  • The key to excellent guacamole is choosing fresh, ripe ingredients. Look for tomatoes that are bright red and firm to the touch. Avocados should be ripe and never hard! 
  • Also, make sure you’re using California avocados (Hass avocados), not the big Florida avocados. The flavor and texture are totally different. 
  • The proportions of avocado to the other ingredients is important as well. I personally hate when a guac is too dominated by tomato and onion or other add-ins. This recipe is based on many years of trying out different combinations and proportions.
