Equipment

  • Potato Masher

Ingredients
  

  • 3 haas avocados ripe
  • 1/4 cup finely diced onions
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1-2 tbsp lime juice
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Slice avocados in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the pits and use a spoon to scrape the avocado flesh out of the skin. Place in a medium sized bowl.
  • Use a potato masher or a fork to start smashing the avocados. Your avocados should be ripe enough that this is easy to do and only takes about a minute! You can also choose to leave the avocados more chunky or continue mashing until you get a smooth consistency.
  • Once you've reached that desired consistency, mix in onions, cilantro, 1 tbsp of lime juice, and salt and pepper. Mix together and give it a taste. Then add extra lime juice and salt as needed.
  • Serve with tortilla chips and enjoy!
