List of Ingredients




2 small, ripe avacados, preferably Haas
1 Tbls. minced red onion
1/2 tsp.garlic, minced
1/2 samll jalepeno chile, stremmed, seeded and minced to equal about 1/2 tsp
2 Tbls. fresh minced cilantro leaves

1 Tbls. juice from 1 lime

Recipe



1. Halve 1 avocado, remove pit, and scoop flesh into medium bowl. Using fork, mash lightly with onion, garlic, jalapeño, cilantro, and 1/8 teaspoon salt until just combined.

2. Halve and pit remaining avocado. Using a dinner knife, carefully make 1/2-inch crosshatch incisions in flesh, cutting down to but not through skin. Using a soup spoon, gently scoop flesh from skin; transfer to bowl with mashed avocado mixture. Sprinkle lime juice over and mix lightly with fork until combined but still chunky. Adjust seasoning with salt, if necessary, and serve. (Can be covered with plastic wrap pressed directly onto surface of mixture, and refrigerated for up to 1 day. Return guacamole to room temperature, removing plastic wrap just before serving.)
