Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados

1 medium tomato, diced

1/4 small red onion, finely chopped

1 clove of garlic, minced (optional)

1 lime, juiced

1/4 teaspoon cumin (optional)

Salt and pepper to taste

A handful of fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)

1 small jalapeño, finely chopped (optional for heat)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Avocados: Slice the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.

    Mash the Avocados: Using a fork or a potato masher, lightly mash the avocado to your desired level of creaminess. Leave some chunks for texture!

      Add Fresh Ingredients: Stir in the diced tomato, red onion, garlic (if using), and jalapeño (if you like it spicy).

        Season it Up: Squeeze in the fresh lime juice and sprinkle the cumin, salt, and pepper over the mixture. Gently fold everything together until well combined.

          Final Touch: If you're using cilantro, add it last and give it one final stir. Adjust seasonings to taste, adding more salt, pepper, or lime juice as desired.

            Serve Immediately: Enjoy your guacamole with tortilla chips, veggies, or as a topping for your favorite Mexican dishes.
