Ingredients:

  • 3 large ripe avocados (should give a little when squeezed)
  • 2 tsp lime juice
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp pepper

Directions:

  1. Wash and discard the peels and seeds of your avocados and put the remaining flesh in a medium sized bowl.
  2. Add lime juice, salt and pepper and mash into the avocado with a fork or potato masher until smooth.
  3. Dice tomatoes, onion and jalapeño and stir into avocado mixture. Add more salt to taste.
  4. STORING: Put into serving dish and cover with plastic wrap so that the wrap is pressed directly on top of the guacamole (eliminating air exposure) and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  5. OPTIONAL PREP TIPS: Dicing Tomatoes - Half tomatoes then squeeze each half gently and use your fingers to get rid of seeds and excess juice then dice. Dicing Jalapeños - Slice the jalapeño in half lengthwise and pull out seeds and membrane. Slice lengthwise into long thin strips, then bunch the strips together and cut crosswise into very finely diced pieces. (Be sure to wash your hands and don't touch your eyes, I learned the hard way!).
