The Best Guacamole Dip
Serves 4-5
INGREDIENTS:
2 ripe avocados
Juice of 1 lime
½ tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. diced tomato, seeds removed
2 Tbsp. dice jalapenos (if you don’t like it too spice, remove the seeds)
1 ½ Tbsp. diced red onion
1 Tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro
1//4 tsp. garlic powder (or 1 clove of garlic minced)
¼ tsp. freshly ground black pepper
INSTRUCTIONS:
1-Remove the pits and place the avocado in a bowl. Mash with a fork until creamy but still a bit chunky.
2-Add remaining ingredients and stir with a spoon until everything is combined well
3-Serve immediately.
NOTES:
Using ripe avocados is the key to success. Choose avocados that will give a little when they are squeezed.
-If there is a limited selection and you cannot find any ripe avocados you can purchase firm ones and allow them to sit on your counter for several days to ripen beforehand. It’s a good idea to plan ahead when purchasing so you have the time needed to allow them to ripen if needed.
