Easy Homemade Guacamole Dip Recipe

Cut open each avocado, remove the pit and squeeze the avocado out into a bowl. You can score the avocado into cubes before squeezing it to make the mashing a bit quicker.
4 ripe avocados
Mash the avocado with a fork. The consistency is entirely up to you. I like to leave some chunks but you can mash them into a paste if you’d like.
Wash and dice the tomatoes, onion, jalapeno and cilantro and add them to the avocado. You can reserve some cilantro for garnish if you like. I deseed the jalapeno for milder guacamole.
8 grape or cherry tomatoes, 2 tbsp red onion, 1 tbsp cilantro, ½ medium jalapeno
TIP: The quantities of ingredients are completely up to you. Use the recipe as a guide then add less/more of each ingredient if you prefer a more or less chunky/spicy dip.
Juice half a lime and add 2 teaspoons to the bowl.
2 tsp lime
Finally, add the salt and pepper, and the optional additions if using, and stir everything to combine. Be gentle as you don’t want to smash the tomatoes.
¼ tsp salt, ¼ tsp pepper, 1 clove garlic, ¼ tsp cumin, ¼ tsp paprika
Serve topped with the remaining cilantro and a slice of lime for garnish with a side of tortilla chips.
