Fresh Guacamole

Guacamole with Tostitos 'Hint of Lime' Chips
Guacamole with Tostitos ‘Hint of Lime’ Chips

For a while, I’ve been thinking of making this, but the weather wasn’t up to par to match this nice outdoor-sy party appetizer. However, today, being a nice 71°C, I’ve decided that it’s finally time to bust out the cooking utensils once again to create this quick and simple dish. It’s a definite audience pleaser.

Cooking Time: 10 minutes
Optional Wait time to Chill dish: 40 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 avocado – pitted, peeled, and mashed
  • 3/4 tomato – seeded and diced
  • 2 tablespoons of diced red onion
  • 1 clove minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon of fresh cilantro
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (pepper is optional)
  • 3 teaspoons of lime juice

Directions:

1. Mix the seeded/diced tomato with the red onion, garlic, cilantro, salt, and lime juice. Stir until the lime juice has soaked consistently into the other ingredients.

2. Mash the avocado in a separate bowl. Add the mixture made in step 1 and stir.
3. (optional) Place guacamole in refrigerator for 40 minutes before serving.
4. Serve with chips and dip away! (Tip: Guacamole goes really well with Tostitos ‘Hint of Lime’ Chips)

Tada! A yummy dish in less than 10 minutes (if you exclude the optional wait time)

Tip: Instead of placing the guacamole in the fridge after making it, I just had all my ingredients in the fridge (avocado included!) beforehand, so they were already chilled before cooking. [It saves you the 40 minutes wait afterwards :P ]
