Description
This guacamole is smooth, creamy, and packed with fresh, vibrant flavors in every bite. The buttery avocados blend perfectly with bright lime juice, juicy tomatoes, crisp onions, and a touch of cilantro for a refreshing homemade dip. Whether scooped up with crunchy tortilla chips or layered onto tacos and sandwiches, it adds a rich and satisfying taste that always disappears fast.

Notes
TECHNIQUE TIP: Use ripe avocados for a creamy texture and freshly squeezed lime juice for vibrant flavor.
STORAGE: Store leftover guacamole in an airtight container with a layer of lime juice or plastic wrap directly on the surface to prevent browning.
SUBSTITUTION: Swap yellow onion with red onion for a sharper taste, or use serrano pepper for added heat.
