Few dips are as universally loved as guacamole. Creamy, fresh, and bursting with flavor, it’s the perfect addition to parties, taco nights, or even a quick snack at home.

Ingredients

3 ripe avocados
1 medium tomato, finely diced
1/2 medium red onion, finely chopped

2 tbsp fresh lime juice (about 1 lime)
1 garlic clove, minced
Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions

1. Prepare the avocados
   Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium bowl. Mash with a fork until smooth but still slightly chunky for texture.

2. Mix in the vegetables
   Add diced tomato, onion, jalapeños (if using), cilantro, and garlic to the mashed avocados. Stir gently to combine.

3. Season and balance flavors
   Pour in the lime juice, then season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust lime and seasoning as needed for brightness and flavor.

4. Serve
   Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl. Serve immediately with tortilla chips, fresh vegetables, or as a topping for tacos, burritos, and grilled meats.

Storage Tips

Guacamole is best enjoyed fresh. If you have leftovers, press plastic wrap directly against the surface to minimize browning, then refrigerate for up to 2 days. Stir well before serving again.

Why This Recipe Works

The richness of ripe avocados is balanced perfectly with the acidity of lime, the freshness of cilantro, and the subtle heat of jalapeños. Keeping some avocado chunks instead of fully pureeing the mixture adds a satisfying texture. The result is a guacamole that tastes bright, creamy, and fresh every single time.
