Ingredients

  • 3 Whole Avocados ripe
  • 2 1/2 tbsp Fresh Lime Juice
  • 3/4 cup Onion diced
  • 3/4 cup Tomatoes diced, organic
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Cilantro chopped
  • 1 Jalapeño Pepper finely diced, seeds removed
  • 3 Garlic Cloves minced
  • 3/4 tsp Sea Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Pepper Freshly Ground

Instructions

  • Add ripe avocados to a large bowl. Using a potato masher or a large fork, mash until nearly smooth. Be sure to leave some chunks for texture!
  • Add red onion, tomato, cilantro, jalapeño, garlic, lime juice, salt and pepper to the bowl.
  • Fold the ingredients until evenly combined. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Be sure to use ripe avocados. Ripe avocados are lightly soft (but not mushy) and the peel is darker in color.
  • Using Cherry Tomatoes can help to elevate the dish and give it a better texture, depending on the tomatoes.
  • For added look, you can add garnish like Broccoli Sprouts, a sprinkle of Cotija Cheese, and/or extra diced tomatoes and cilantro to the top.
