Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Mash the avocados in a bowl, leaving some chunks for texture.
  2. Stir in the lime juice, onion, cilantro, jalapeno, and salt.
  3. Taste and adjust the lime and salt.
  4. Cut the vegetables into sticks and serve alongside for dipping.

Tips

  • Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of leftover guac to keep it from browning.
  • The lime is not just for flavor — its acid slows the avocado from oxidizing.
