This creamy and delicious authentic Guacamole recipe is made with ripe, creamy avocados, fresh tomatoes, onions, chiles, salt, cilantro and fresh lime juice. Packed with flavor and so easy to make that we are sure you'll be making this recipe for years to come.

📝 Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup red onions (finely chopped (brown or white onions can be used))
  • 1 - 2 jalapeño or serrano peppers (seeded and finely chopped (remove the ribs for less heat).)
  • 3 tablespoons cilantro (chopped)
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt (or to taste)
  • 3 ripe Hass avocados (halved and pitted)
  • 1 - 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice (or to taste)
  • 1 ripe Roma tomato (seeded and chopped (optional))
  • Tortilla Chips

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Combine the onions, jalapeño peppers, half of the chopped cilantro and salt in a medium bowl. With a fork, mash the ingredients together a few times. This will bruise the ingredients a bit making them aromatic. You can also mash the ingredients together in a traditional Mexican mortar and pestle (molcajete).
  2. 2Scoop the flesh of the avocados into the bowl, discarding any bruised, browned areas. Mash the avocado coarsely or until it reaches your desired texture. I like a few small chunks to remain. Stir in the rest of the cilantro and lime juice. If you are using tomatoes, stir them in. Mix to combine and taste. Adjust salt and lime juice to taste.
