Ingredients
  

  • 4 ripe avocados
  • ½ red onion chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 Fresno pepper deseeded and minced
  • 1 lime juiced
  • 1 Roma tomato
  • ½ cup cilantro chopped
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp cumin

Instructions
 

  • Peel avocados and place the flesh in a bowl or mortar/pestle. Mash avocados to desired thickness (some like guacamole completely mashed, but we prefer it with a few chunks remaining). Using your hands, squeeze out some water from the tomatoes and add them to the bowl. Add in the remaining ingredients and stir until combined. Can top with black pepper and a few extra cilantro leaves.

Notes

You can substitute the Fresno pepper for a jalapeno pepper for a spicier guacamole.
