Classic Guacamole
- 4 small avocados
- 1 lime
- 1 roma tomato
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 jalapeno
- 14 red onion
- 12 cup cilantro
- salt
- pepper
- Separate avocados into a medium bowl.
- Mash using fork.
- Add pressed garlic and mix.
- Finely mince a handful of cilantro.
- I've never measured cilantro in my life so I don't know how many tablespoons it is, but maybe close to half a cup.
- Add cilantro and mix.
- Add 1/4 cup of finely chopped red onion and mix.
- The reason your mixing every time is to further mash the avocado and of course to mix the flavors.
- Start boiling a small pot of water.
- Split jalapeno into quarters and remove the seeds.
- Finely chop the jalapeno add and mix.
- Slit an X in the bottom of your tomato and dip in boiling water for 30-45 seconds and immediately place under cold running water.
- Remove skin starting at your X.
- Slice tomato into 8ths and remove seeds.
- Dice and place into bowl and mix.
- Slice lime in two against the grain and drain using salad fork.

- Mix in salt and pepper, cover, and refrigerate for 20-30 minutes.
- I know some people say to eat guacamole right after prep, but the ingredients need time to marinate.
- Remove and enjoy with tortilla chips.
