Ingredients

  • 2 1/4+ c diced avocado-about 5 small or 3 large
  • 2 T lime juice- about 1 lime
  • 1/2 t Kosher salt
  • 1/2 t cumin
  • 2 T finely diced red onion
  • 1/2 c diced grape/mini marzano tomatoes
  • 2 T chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 large clove garlic, finely minced
  • 1 jalapeno- seeded and finely diced

Instructions

  • Dice avocados, leaving then somewhat chunky. Sprinkle with lime juice.~ You could mash them to your preference at this point or wait until all ingredients are added. I like my guacamole a bit chunky.
  • Sprinkle on the salt and cumin.
  • Finely dice the other ingredients and indicated. A lot of the seeds from the tomatoes come out when slicing; just add the flesh parts, not seeds. You could seed 1-2 Roma tomatoes in place of these.
  • Combine all of the ingredients, pressing diced avocado along the side of the bowl with a wooden spoon to obtain a smoother consistency. Taste and adjust seasoning, if desired.
  • If you are not serving this immediately, cover with plastic wrap, touching all surfaces, to avoid oxidation. Refrigerate until ready to use.
