Every month I get together with some old girlfriends, everybody brings food and we just catch up. I always ask what they want me to bring…”I have a culinary degree remember, I can make anything.” Nope, every time its the same, “Bring your famous guacamole!” Easy for me, and I don’t know how famous it is, its rather basic. But it is delicious, and fresh, and easy, and even healthy (not counting the chips).
Recipe: Guacamole
Ingredients
- 3 ripe avocados (chopped)
- 1/2 lime juice
- 8 cherry tomatoes chopped (or any tomato)
- 1/4 red onion small dice
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 2 T cilantro minced
- 1/2 jalapeno minced
- 1/2 t kosher salt
- 8 cranks fresh black pepper
Instructions
- Cut your avocados in half lengthwise around the pit, hit the pit with your knife to pull it out and pop it off your knife into the garbage. Make a grid of cuts in the avocado and scoop the flesh out with a spoon. Add the lime juice next so the avocado won’t brown.
- Add all other ingredients and mix to combine. The avocado will mash a bit as you combine the ingredients but leave it as chunky as you like it.
