Ingredients for Goal Getter Guacamole

Avocados are the heart of this guacamole, providing a rich and creamy base. Look for ripe ones that give slightly when pressed. Tomato adds a juicy freshness and a pop of color, while the red onion contributes a mild, sharp bite. For that essential herbaceous note, we use cilantro — it’s aromatic and refreshing. The lime juice does more than add acidity; it brightens up the flavors and helps prevent the avocados from browning. We balance everything with a pinch of salt and black pepper for seasoning. If you're feeling adventurous, the jalapeño offers a kick of heat that can be adjusted to your liking.

Tips & Tricks

  • To keep the guacamole from browning, press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto its surface before refrigerating.
  • For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a small clove of minced garlic.
  • If you prefer a smoother texture, use a potato masher instead of a fork.

Serving Suggestions

Guacamole pairs beautifully with tortilla chips for a classic snack. It's also fantastic as a topping for tacos, burgers, or even a hearty salad. For a fun twist, try it as a spread on your favorite sandwich or toast.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this guacamole in advance?
Yes, although it's best when fresh, you can make it a few hours ahead. Store it in the fridge with plastic wrap pressed against the surface to prevent browning.
What if I don't like cilantro?
No problem! Simply leave it out or substitute with fresh parsley for a different flavor profile.

Goal Getter Guacamole Recipe Walkthrough

Start by slicing the avocados in half, carefully twisting them to separate the halves. Remove the pits — a spoon can help scoop them out safely. Scoop the avocado flesh into a mixing bowl. Now, take a fork and begin mashing the avocados. You can go for a chunkier texture or mash them until smooth, depending on your preference.

Next, add the diced tomato, finely chopped red onion, and cilantro to the bowl. Squeeze in the lime juice — be generous, as this will infuse the guacamole with a zesty punch. Sprinkle in the salt and black pepper. If you opted for a spicy twist, now’s the time to toss in the minced jalapeño. Gently fold the ingredients together with a spoon or spatula until everything is well combined.

Give it a taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Sometimes a touch more lime or salt can make all the difference. Once you’re happy with the flavor, your guacamole is ready to serve!
