How to Make Naked Guacamole

  1. Halve and pit 2 ripe avocados. Scoop the flesh into a medium bowl.
  2. Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt and the juice of 1 lime. Gently mash with a fork or potato masher until you reach your desired chunky consistency. Do not over-mash.
  3. Finely chop 1/4 cup red onion, 1/2 cup diced tomato, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro. Add to the mashed avocado and gently stir to combine.
  4. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more salt or lime juice to your preference. For a snack with tostadas, use more salt and lime.
  5. If serving with richer dishes like carnitas or carne asada, season more subtly to balance the flavors.
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy!
