- 1-2 Roma tomatoes small diced
- ⅓ cup red onion small diced
- ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon Mexican oregano
- few dashes hot sauce
Instructions
- Cut the avocados in half and remove the pits. Scoop the avocado flesh into a mixing bowl, reserving 3 pits, set aside.
- Use a fork or a potato masher to mash until the avocado is chunky smooth. Immediately add the lime juice.
- Add the remaining ingredients, mixing until well combined.
- Mix 3 reserved pits into the guacamole, press plastic wrap on top, then store tightly sealed until serving.
- Serve with tortilla chips or vegetables for dipping.
Notes
Mashed avocado can turn brown when exposed to air for too long. I recommend dicing and preparing the mix-in ingredients before cutting the avocados and mashing them for the best results.
