Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 count ripe avocados slightly soft
  • 3 tablespoons fresh salsa store-bought or homemade
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice about half of a lime
  • 1-2 cloves garlic finely minced or pressed
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt to taste

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Fork or potato masher
  • Measuring spoons
  • Knife
  • Lime juicer

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Start by cutting the avocados in half, removing the pit, and scooping the flesh into your mixing bowl. Use a fork or potato masher to mash the avocado to your preferred consistency—smooth or chunky, it's entirely up to you!
  2. Next, add 3 tablespoons of fresh salsa to the mashed avocado. This will introduce additional flavor, texture, and color to your guacamole. Mix well until combined.
  3. Now, take your lime and squeeze about 1 tablespoon of juice into the mixture. The lime juice not only adds flavor but also helps prevent the avocados from browning. Give the mixture a good stir to incorporate the juice evenly.
  4. Finely mince or press 1-2 garlic cloves and add them to the bowl along with 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt. Mix everything together until well combined. Taste your guacamole and adjust the salt as needed, adding more for that perfect flavor.

Notes

  • Guacamole is best enjoyed fresh, but you can store leftovers in an airtight container.
  • Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface to minimize browning.
  • Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days for best results.
