As we dive into the summer food series, there's no better way to start than with the classic crowd-pleaser – guacamole. Whether you're preparing a batch just for yourself to enjoy or planning to serve it at a gathering, guacamole is an essential addition to your summer menu.
For me, the ideal guacamole is one that's chunky, packed with a kick of spice, and bursting with flavor – and this recipe ticks all the boxes. What sets this guacamole apart is its versatility. You have the freedom to tailor it to your taste preferences, adding just the right amount of each ingredient to create a personalized blend.
During the summer months, spending hours in a hot kitchen is the last thing anyone wants. Guacamole comes to the rescue as a quick, budget-friendly meal option that is bound to win over the hearts (and taste buds) of your guests!
Ingredients
4 Avocados
2 Roma tomatoes
1 onion (white variety)
1-2 limes (I opted for 1)
1 bunch of Cilantro
1-2 Jalapenos
Salt (as per taste)
Pepper (as per taste)
Instructions
Start by cutting the avocados in half, removing the pit, and scooping the flesh into a mixing bowl.
Using a fork, mash the avocado to your desired consistency, either chunky or smooth.
Next, dice the tomatoes, onion, cilantro, and jalapenos, placing them in a separate mixing bowl. Combine the ingredients.
Sprinkle a bit of salt and pepper, and squeeze the juice of half a lime into the bowl with the diced ingredients. Mix well.
Combine the diced ingredients with the mashed avocados. Gently mix or fold the ingredients together. Adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper, and lime juice if necessary. Enjoy!
