One of the perks of living in Southern California is the abundance of fresh avocados. In all seriousness, we probably buy anywhere between six and eight avocados a week because they’re so cheap, and we eat them almost daily. And while there are many recipes that make use of this delicious fruit, our easy homemade guacamole is one of our all-time FAVORITE things to make (and eat!).
We love making our own guac because it tastes so fresh and healthy, and it’s super easy to throw together! With only four main ingredients plus some lime juice and salt to bring out the flavors, this recipe comes together in under 10 minutes.
Here’s how to make easy homemade guacamole in three steps:
- Mash avocado in a bowl.
- Dice roma tomato, red onion, and jalapeno and add it to the mashed avocado.
- Add lime juice and salt, then stir to combine.
Serve this guacamole with tortilla chips and you’ve got a great appetizer or snack! It’s also a delicious topping for meals like our Shredded Chicken Tacos or burrito bowls made with our Mexican-Style Rice, and makes a great side for our Chicken Burritos Ranchero. Plus, it’s so easy to scale this recipe if you want to make it for a crowd – just use about half an avocado per person.
We hope you love this recipe as much as we do!
