How to Make Greg's Favorite Guacamole

  1. Halve and pit 2 ripe avocados.
  2. Using a fork, score the avocado flesh in a crosshatch pattern, being careful not to cut through the skin.
  3. Gently scoop the avocado flesh into a medium-sized bowl, leaving a few chunky pieces behind for texture.
  4. Add 2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lime juice and stir gently to coat the avocados.
  5. Add 1/2 cup of freshly made pico de gallo (recipe can be found online), 1 minced garlic clove, 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil, 1/4 of a finely chopped jalapeño (remove seeds for less heat), and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
  6. Gently toss and lightly mash the avocado with a fork, leaving many large pieces intact. Aim for a chunky consistency with a mix of whole and mashed avocado.
  7. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more lime juice for tartness or salt for savoriness.
  8. Serve immediately with your favorite tortilla chips or as a topping for tacos and other dishes.
