Fresh and Zesty Guacamole

Fresh and Zesty Guacamole. If eating a rainbow of colors is a healthy way to fill your plate, Fresh and Zesty Guacamole and homemade pico de gallo salsa are two foods we should eat every day. I could do that. If I must. Let’s make some guacamole that will knock your socks off, flop you on the couch, and make you endure an episode of Dancing with the Stars… if you must.

Fresh and Zesty Guacamole

  • 1/4 red onion, finely diced
  • 1 large tomato, diced
  • 3 avocados, smashed as much as you like
  • 1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped fine
  • 1 Jalapeno pepper, stem & seeds removed  & minced (wash hands well after chopping)
  • Juice of one small, fresh lime
  • 2 teaspoons cumin
  • 1/2 sea salt (or more if needed)
  • Coarse ground pepper

Add all ingredients to a medium bowl and stir.

Tip: If you want to make this recipe even easier, just make a double batch of pico de gallo and stir half of it into your avocado. Add salt & pepper & stir.

Please pass the chips. And the remote.
