Few things are as satisfying as a fresh, homemade guacamole bursting with flavor. Whether you’re preparing it for a party, taco night, or just as a delicious snack, this simple recipe will have you making the perfect guacamole in no time.

Ingredients:

4 ripe avocados
2 tablespoons lemon or lime juice
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
Hot sauce (to taste)
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons red onion, diced
2 tablespoons minced Italian parsley or cilantro
1/4 cup diced tomato

Instructions:

Prepare the Avocados – Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Add the lemon or lime juice and gently toss to coat the avocado. This helps prevent browning and enhances the flavor.
Season It – Add the salt, pepper, hot sauce, and minced garlic to the bowl. These ingredients provide the perfect balance of seasoning with a little kick.
Mix It Up – Using a knife, cut the avocado into small cubes directly in the bowl. This method keeps a chunkier texture instead of a smooth mash, giving each bite a delicious contrast.
Add Fresh Ingredients – Stir in the diced red onion, minced parsley or cilantro, and diced tomato. Gently toss everything together until evenly combined.
Serve Immediately – Fresh guacamole is best enjoyed right away. Serve it with crispy tortilla chips, or use it as a topping for tacos, burritos, or as a side for any Mexican dish.

Pro Tips:

For an extra creamy texture, mash half of the avocado while keeping the other half cubed.
If you love spice, add finely diced jalapeños or extra hot sauce.
Store leftovers in an airtight container with plastic wrap pressed directly onto the surface to prevent oxidation.

Enjoy your homemade guacamole!
