Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 avocados
  • ½ lemon, juiced
  • 2 tablespoons chopped onion
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt


Instructions

  1. Prepare Avocados: Cut the avocados into halves, remove the seeds, and scoop out the pulp into a small bowl to create the base for your guacamole.
  2. Mash Avocados: Use a fork to mash the avocado pulp until you reach a creamy yet slightly chunky consistency, depending on your preference.
  3. Add Flavorings: Stir in the freshly squeezed lemon juice, chopped onion, olive oil, and salt thoroughly to combine all the flavors.
  4. Chill: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together before serving.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add chopped cilantro or a pinch of cumin.
  • Serve with tortilla chips, fresh vegetables, or as a topping for tacos and salads.
  • Keep the guacamole covered tightly to prevent browning.
  • If you prefer a spicier guacamole, consider adding finely chopped jalapeño.
