SIMPLE FRESH HOMEMADE GUACAMOLE

Recipe week (Day 4)

Well it’s me again. I hope you’re all having a great week and still surviving life indoors. As you can see I am back again and we are on day 4 people. I know you’re probably almost tired of me but hopefully not yet, let’s just finish the week then we can all take a breather and do stop by days 1,2 and 3 too. Today it’s all about the lovely avocado in my simple, fresh homemade guacamole. Guacamole can be a little bit controversial if you ask me depending on where you’re from because there’s the smooth, spicy, chunky and the crazy version with other ingredients added to it. What I don’t get is the people who hate avocado, like really? It hasn’t done anything wrong and I just love it. Anyway, this is my simple, fresh homemade guacamole recipe. I mean it’s not really a recipe since you just throw in a few ingredients together, for this you will need;

SIMPLE FRESH HOMEMADE GUACAMOLE

Ingredients

  • 2 avocados
  • 1 chopped onion
  • Garlic clove
  • Half a lemon juice
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • 2 chopped tomatoes
  • Jalapenos/ chillies (optional)

METHOD

  • Scoop out your de-seeded avocados into a bowl and mash them up using a fork, It doesn’t have to be super smooth but I love mine with some texture to it.
  • Then pour in your lemon juice which will prevent the avocados from turning black super quick.
  • Season with salt to taste, give it a mix then add in your onions and mix it up once again.
  • Now you can choose to chop up your garlic or even add garlic powder but I love the intensity of raw garlic in mine so I grate one large clove and give it a good mix.
  • Then in go your chopped tomatoes and some pepper to taste too, here is where you can also add your chillies( optional).
  • Check for seasoning adjust where needed then transfer into another bowl , cover and refrigerate.
  • Serve and enjoy.

  5. Holy Moley… Guaca…Mole!!! sorry couldn’t help myself. But what a simple and yummy version of guac you made. Of course, you know I love the heat so those jalapenos or green chiles are definitely not optional even for the kids in my family! I bet adding a bit of low sodium bacon would be fun too!
