You can add more or less of any given ingredient. You can even mix up the ingredients to create a unique blend. To get started on this guacamole recipe, just choose your favorite avocados.

Adding jalapeño (jalapeno) peppers to your homemade guacamole can create an extra zesty and flavorful dish. Jalapeños are usually added when making salsa because they provide both heat and depth of flavor. Taking this idea into account, adding them to guacamole will not only add on some spice but also make for a more interesting taste that you won't get with just tomatoes, onions, chilies, and fresh lime juice alone!

GUACAMOLE INGREDIENTS:

3 avocado, ripe

1/2 small red onion, finely diced

2 Roma diced tomatoes

3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro

1-2 TSP Revved Up Jalapeno Hot Sauce

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 lime, juiced

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

How to Select Avocados:

An avocado is a fruit that have been around for thousands of years and have come to be a staple in many cultures. An avocado can range in color from green to black, but the most common color is dark green. The skin texture ranges from slightly bumpy to smooth and pebbly; this depends on the variety of avocado you purchase.

To select a ripe avocado, look for the avocado that are slightly soft to the touch. The skin of a ripe avocado will be dark with some black spots and it should have an even color across its surface. To check if your avocado is ready, press on the fruit gently with your thumb or finger. If you feel any resistance, then this means that the avocado is not quite ready!
