This is the guacamole I throw together when I want something savory in the afternoon. Ripe avocado gets mashed with a little tomato, onion, and garlic, then brightened with lime.

It has no dairy and no nuts, so it works as a snack for almost anyone. Scoop it with cucumber, celery, or pork rinds.

Ingredients

  • 2 medium avocados
  • 1/4 cup diced tomato
  • 2 tbsp minced onion
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Juice of 1/2 lime
  • Salt to taste
  • 1/4 tsp cumin
  • Chopped cilantro
  • Hot sauce, optional

Instructions

  1. 1

    Halve the avocados, scoop the flesh into a bowl, and mash to the texture you like.

  2. 2

    Add the tomato, onion, and garlic and fold them through.

  3. 3

    Squeeze in the lime, then season with salt and cumin.

  4. 4

    Taste and adjust, adding cilantro or a few dashes of hot sauce if you want it.

  5. 5

    Press plastic wrap onto the surface if you are not eating it right away, to slow browning.

Tips

  • Leave one avocado a little chunky for texture instead of mashing everything smooth.
