Best Ever Guacamole

This is the BEST guacamole recipe as it’s simple to make and uses fresh, high-quality ingredients.

Authentic guacamole doesn’t contain fillers and unnecessary ingredients. All you need is avocados, onion, tomatoes, cilantro, jalapeno pepper, lime juice, garlic, and salt. Easy and delicious!

With just 8 simple ingredients you can make one of the all-time best dip recipes.

• Avocados: I’ve got a few tips for picking ripe ones below.

• Onion: I’m using yellow onion which is most often used in Mexico, but you could use red onion as well.

• Tomatoes: Choose Roma tomatoes which are less juicy. No one wants a watery guac.

• Cilantro: One of my favorite herbs and a staple in Mexican cuisine.

• Jalapeno: You can also use serrano pepper for a little extra heat.

• Garlic: Some people like their guac with garlic, others like it without. I love just a little.

• Lime: Freshly squeezed is a must. Don’t use jarred lime juice!

• Salt: A pinch of salt brings it all together.
