This is the best recipe for guacamole that I have tried so far! Very easy to make, great flavor with a little bit of a kick, and a popular party appetizer!
Serves: 5-6
Ingredients
  • 4 Haas avocados, halved, seeded and peeled
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin, optional (for a kick)
  • ½ teaspoon cayenne, optional (for a kick)
  • ½ medium red onion, diced
  • ½ jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
  • 2 Roma tomatoes, seeded and diced (can leave out, sometimes I do)
  • 2 tablespoon chopped cilantro
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
Instructions
  1. In a large bowl place the scooped avocado pulp and lime juice, toss to coat.
  2. Drain, and reserve the lime juice, after all of the avocados have been coated.
  3. Using a potato masher or fork add the salt, cumin, and cayenne and mash.
  4. Fold in the onions, jalapeno, tomatoes, cilantro, and garlic.
  5. Add 1 tablespoon of the reserved lime juice. L
  6. Let sit at room temperature for 1 hour for flavors to marry and then serve.
Putting the pit in a bowl and covering it with guacamole keeps it from oxidizing - press plastic wrap onto top of guacamole until ready to serve.
