🥑 Ingredients needed
For this recipe, you will need:
- Avocados: You will need three large avocados for this recipe. The avocados should give in to your touch but still be a little firm. If you are using small avocados, use four.
- Grape tomatoes: You’ll need ¾ cup of grape tomatoes cut into quarters. You can also substitute Roma or cherry tomatoes, if needed.
- Fresh cilantro: Washed with the stems removed and then chopped.
- Garlic powder and salt: To season the guacamole with. You can add more or less to taste, if needed.
- Small lime: You will need the juice of one small lime. If you only have bottled on hand use about one tablespoon.
- Jalapeño pepper (optional): For a little spice. I recommend removing the seeds unless you want tons of spice.
🔪 Equipment needed
You will need a fork to mash the avocados with an a large bowl.

⭐ Tips
- Add a jalapeño with the seeds removed for a little spice.
- Use a small lime, not a large lime. If using bottled lime juice, you’ll need about one tablespoon.
- Add salt to taste. I recommend using sea salt.
🥡 How to store leftovers
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in your fridge. It will be good for up to three days after making.
If your guacamole looks brown that is because the avocados have oxidized. Give the guacamole a good stir and it well help it return to a green color.
