Notes

Easy Guacamole

Guacamole can seem intimidating, but it's so easy! Mash up three ripe avocados with a minced jalapeño, a couple tablespoons of chopped red onion, a couple tablespoons of chopped fresh cilantro, juice from two limes and kosher salt to taste. That's it! If you want to play with the spice level, you can use more or less jalapeño. Or, you can leave the seeds and ribs in if you want to keep things fiery.
