Ingredients
Scale
- 3 medium avocados
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ – 1 teaspoon sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1–2 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 small tomatoes deseeded and diced
Instructions
- Cut open avocados lengthwise, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh into a mixing bowl.
- Gently mash the avocado with a potato masher or fork, keeping it slightly chunky.
- Stir in cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, ½ teaspoon salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon lime juice.
- For a smoother guacamole, combine spices as you mash. For a chunkier version, fold the spices in with a rubber spatula.
- Add cilantro and diced tomatoes, stirring until everything is well mixed.
- Taste the guacamole and adjust with additional salt or lime juice if desired.
- Let the guacamole sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- For longer storage, place in the fridge covered tightly, adding a pit and a splash of lime juice to prevent browning.
- Serve at room temperature or chilled.
Notes
Fresh cilantro adds a burst of flavor, but can be omitted if you prefer a simpler taste.
To prevent browning, always cover the guacamole tightly with plastic wrap when storing.
If serving later, make sure it’s at room temperature for the best flavor.
