Prep: 15 min · Cook: 0 min · Yield: 6 · Method: No-Cook

Ingredients

• 3 large ripe avocados
• 1 medium fresh lime
• 0.25 cup red onion
• 0.25 cup fresh cilantro
• 1 small jalapeño
• 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt

Cooking instructions

1. Halve and pit the avocados. Scoop the flesh into a medium bowl and mash with a fork until mostly chunky, leaving some larger pieces. (about 3 min)
2. Finely chop the red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño. For milder guacamole, remove the jalapeño seeds and ribs before chopping. (about 7 min)
3. Add the chopped onion, cilantro, jalapeño, and kosher salt to the avocado. Squeeze in the juice of the lime and gently fold until combined. (about 3 min)
4. Taste and adjust the salt or lime juice as needed. Serve immediately with tortilla chips or fresh vegetables. (about 2 min)
