Phyllis's Guacamole Recipe Plus Avocado toast

Guacamole Recipe

Ingredients:

3 ripe avocados
1/2 red onion, finely diced
2 Roma tomatoes, diced
2-3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro
1 jalapeño pepper, seeds removed and finely diced (omit if you don't like it too spicy, or add a little cayenne pepper)
2-3 garlic cloves, minced
1 fresh lime, juiced
1 teaspoon salt

 

Step 1: Slice the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop into a medium sized bowl.

Step 2: Mash the avocado with a pastry cutter to your desired consistency.

Step 3: Add the remaining ingredients and stir together. Adjust to your taste. It's always a good idea to add less ingredient initially, taste, then add more until it's right for you. Removing the seeds from the jalapeño reduces the spiciness.

Step 4: Serve with your favorite Latin dishes or tortilla chips.
