Easiest Guacamole Ever
If you’re anything like me, having fresh, healthy snacks ready to go is always a good idea—especially when you’re hosting friends or family. This guacamole recipe is a hit with just about everyone. Even people who usually don’t like avocado have told me they were surprised by how much they loved it! I think it’s the perfect mix of simple, quality ingredients and bold flavors that really make the difference. Hopefully you will make this and never buy store bought guac again!
Ingredients
You will need:
- 3 medium size avocados, medium soft but not too ripe
- 2 tablespoons of red onion, chopped
- 2 firm Roma tomatoes, chopped
- 3 tablespoons of fresh cilantro, chopped
- 2 jalapeño peppers with the seeds removed, chopped
- 1 fresh garlic clove, crushed OR 2 teaspoons of garlic powder
- Juice of 1 lime
- 1 teaspoon of sea salt. I like using Redmond’s Real Salt or Celtic Sea Salt for its mineral rich content.
You can use more less of these ingredients depending on your flavor preferences and desired spice level.
Directions
All you’ll need to do is:
- Place your avocados in a bowl with the pit removed
- Mash the avocado well with a fork to your desired consistency
- Add your red onion, Roma tomato, cilantro, jalapeño, garlic, lime juice, and sea salt to the bowl. Stir well.
- Be sure to give your guacamole a taste. If you need more lime or salt, go ahead and add it now.
Serve with your choice of tortilla chips or add it on top of any recipe. My go-to brand is Siete Foods for plenty of gluten-free options cooked in avocado oil instead of seed oils.
And that’s literally it! If you found this recipe helpful, please let me know in the comments below. Feel free to request any other healthy recipes so I can add them to the blog in the future!
