This basic guacamole recipe is my family's favorite version but we mix it up depending on what ingredients we have on hand.
Ingredients
  • 2 medium-sized avocados
  • Roughly 2-3 Tbsp Salsa Verde
  • ¼ cup chopped tomatoes
  • ½ - 1 tsp salt, to taste
  • 2 drops of hot sauce (such as Tabasco)
  • ½ - 1 tsp garlic powder, to taste
Instructions
  1. Scoop the flesh of the avocado into a bowl, using a spoon to easily get all of the avocado from the skin.
  2. Mix in the rest of the ingredients and mash until it is your desired consistency.
  3. You can use less or more salsa depending on how much avocado flesh you end up with. In my family, we prefer chunky guacamole so we usually use less salsa so that it doesn't become too runny.
  4. Serve it immediately.
  5. If you have leftovers, cover the guacamole with plastic wrap, sealing the bowl but also pressing the plastic wrap directly onto the guacamole. This will help prevent the guacamole from turning brown.
