Instructions

Prepare Ingredients: Gather your ripe avocado, green onion, lemon juice, tomatoes, and Tabasco sauce.
Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the diced avocado, chopped green onion, lemon juice, and diced tomatoes. Be sure not to puree the mixture; it should have a slightly lumpy texture for that authentic guacamole experience.
Add Tabasco Sauce: To give your guacamole a spicy kick, add Tabasco sauce to taste. Adjust the amount according to your preference for heat.
Serve: Transfer your freshly made guacamole to a serving bowl. It’s now ready to be enjoyed! Serve it alongside crispy tortilla chips for a classic appetizer, or use it as a topping for your favorite Mexican dishes such as tacos, burritos, enchiladas, or quesadillas. 🌯🥑🌮

Tips

For the best flavor, use ripe avocados that yield slightly to gentle pressure when squeezed. If your avocados are not yet ripe, place them in a paper bag for a few days to speed up the ripening process.
Customize your guacamole by adding extra ingredients such as diced jalapeños, cilantro, minced garlic, or diced onions.
To prevent your guacamole from turning brown, store it in an airtight container and press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the guacamole to minimize air exposure.
Guacamole is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one day. Just be sure to give it a good stir before serving if any liquid has separated.

So, whether you’re whipping up a quick snack for yourself or sharing it with a friend, this guacamole recipe is sure to be a hit! Dive in and enjoy the creamy goodness of perfectly ripe avocados blended with zesty flavors. 🥑🎉
