There are few things I love more in life than good guacamole! Growing up in San Diego, it became a staple in my diet very early on. So, without further adeu, here is the way I make guacamole:
Guacamole
What you'll need:
2 ripe avocados
1/4 onion, finely minced
1/2 large ripe tomato, diced into small pieces
a handful of cilantro, chopped
the juice of half a lime
a pinch of salt
What you'll do:
Place the meat of the avocados in a medium bowl and roughly mash with a fork.
Add in the onion, tomato, cilantro, lime and salt. Mix together.
That's it! I love serving it back in it's own skin. It looks cute and everyone gets and individual bowl : )
You can also get more creative, by adding cheddar cheese or roasted corn for a little something extra.
I absolutely love how you put the guacamole in the avocado skins! That’s so cute.
i was going to make some for Cinco de Mayo & was just going to look for a recipe since i haven’t made it in so long! Great timing!
Ok – so i made this & everyone asked for the recipe! i told them it was so simple! Thanks Leslie! I’ll be directing them to your website!
What a cute way to serve guac! Have you tried adding finely chopped jalepeno’s for a bit of kick? It’s awesome.
I add just a wee bit of the jalepeno as well and some fresh finely chopped garlic. Thanks Leslie, I now have a taste for some fresh guac!! XoX
Christina, I am a major wimp when it comes to heat so I skip it and I just really like to keep my guac simple so you can really taste all the fresh ingredients : )
