Instructions:

  1. Prepare Avocados: Start by cutting the avocados in half, removing the pits, and scooping the flesh into a large mixing bowl. Use a fork or a potato masher to mash the avocados to your desired consistency—smooth or slightly chunky.
  2. Add Vegetables: Stir in the finely chopped red onion and diced tomatoes. The red onion adds a sharp, flavorful contrast, while the tomatoes bring a juicy freshness.
  3. Incorporate Heat: Mix in the minced jalapeño pepper. Adjust the amount according to your spice preference. For a milder guacamole, use less of the jalapeño or remove the seeds before mincing.
  4. Add Fresh Herbs: Gently fold in the chopped cilantro. Cilantro adds a burst of herbal freshness that complements the richness of the avocados.
  5. Season: Squeeze the juice of the limes over the mixture. The lime juice not only adds a tangy flavor but also helps prevent the avocados from browning. Season with sea salt and stir to combine everything evenly.
  6. Serve: Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl and enjoy immediately with tortilla chips, as a topping for tacos, or as a creamy addition to your favorite dishes.

This guacamole is a versatile and crowd-pleasing dish that’s perfect for any occasion. Each bite offers a harmonious blend of creamy avocados, zesty lime, and fresh ingredients, making it a timeless favorite that enhances any meal. Whether enjoyed at a party or as a simple snack, this guacamole is sure to be a hit.
