2 Tablespoons of salsa from Costco and 1/2 an avocado Can't get much easier than that!

Whatever you do dont put mayo, greek yogurt or sour cream into it.


Simple easy peasy:
Soft avocado.
cut it lengthwise give it a twist and pull apart the halves. Pull out the pit. Scoop out meat.
Lime
Garlic powder
Onion powder
Salsa


Yum!

Mine is very very basic.

Ripe avacado (1-2 avacados)
Fresh Lime juice (1/2 a lime)
garlic powder (to taste) (1/8-1/4 tsp? - not sure never really measured just put a few dashes/sprinkles)
Season all (or Lawry's Seasoned Salt) (to taste) (1/8-1/4 tsp? - not sure never really measured just put a few dashes/sprinkles)
A dash of tabasco (optional - if you like a bit of heat)

Mash up the avacado, add the lime, seaoned salt, garlic powder, stir and enjoy!

i use avocado and whatever of the following i have on hand

lemon juice AND/OR tomatoes (you need an acid to reduce browning)
any or all of: garlic, onion, green onion, cilantro, jalapeno
salt to taste.

mush together to desired consistency. I like to let it sit in the fridge for a few hours

This is mine:

avocado
garlic powder to taste
tomatoes
red onion
lime juice to taste

I'm sure you can use whatever you want - this is what I have found to be my fave and not taste like grass.

i use alittle taco seasoning (mine homemade so less salt) and a little lime juice if on hand the kids love it... also started using a old fashioned potato masher to mix it up makes it so easy...

alladream

I use organic avocado, organic lemon juice, and organic garlic or organic garlic powder, and organic tomatoes. I squish them together, and they are divine! Reminds me I should make some nice crispy tofu and eat it together...hhmmm. Thanks for the reminder!

Avocado
Lemon juice (or lime)

liberal amounts of Mrs. Dash Extra Spicy

if you are eating it right then and there, ripe avacado and salt to taste and finely chopped red onion to taste.

mommy3457

Thank you all! I'm making a "Chipotle" inspired pork dinner, and guacamole makes the meal so thank you for your recipes!

SoDamnHungry

Alton Brown's recipe is my absolute favorite. The ingredients are things you may have around the house, but maybe not, so hopefully this will work for you:

Avocado, Cumin, Cayenne Pepper, clove of garlic, tomatoes, lime, salt, and onion. I skip the onion and you could easily skip the tomato. If you want the ratio just google his recipe.

I use:

avocados
tomatoes
onion
lime juice
cilantro
salt

This is the only way I ever eat it.

ziggyc

a few avocadoes
fresh lemon or lime juice ( for flavor & to avoid browning)
salt

optional - diced tomato-seeds removed
optional - diced onion

and don't mix it too much. Leave it chunky. :-)

2 Avocados
60-90grams Trader joes No Sodium Added Fire Roasted Salsa

My Kroger store sells ready-made pico de gallo in the produce department. I just mix a container of that with one or two avocados if I don't have a lot of time.

P.S. They also have guacamole seasoning packets where you would find taco seasoning and such. Just add avocados.

ShannonMpls

You can go as simply as mashed avocado with lime juice and salt to taste. This is often how I make if all I have is avocado and lime.

I prefer it with some finely diced onion, tomato, and jalapeno topped with cilantro but I like almost all guacamole. Unless it's made with one of those seasoning packets; then it's not so good.

terlyn20

this is not a short list.

Haas avocados
roma tomatoes
green onion
fresh lime juice
cilantro ( torn )
sea salt and large blk pepper flakes
chopped jalapeno

optional: 4 slices ( or more ) real bacon chopped in and 1 or 2 T. of Sour cream mixed with the lime juice.

for a short list. got to avocado, tomato, onion and lime juice. ( or a really go Salsa )

I agree with this. Think about what you see in most fancy guacamole recipes. It's mostly the same ingredients that are already in salsa, like tomatoes, onions, red pepper, etc! Use a chunky salsa for best results. You can mash the avocado with a fork and have guacamole in 1 minute.

The only other thing I would add is some lemon or lime juice, since the tartness adds an extra layer of flavor and it prevents the avocado from oxidizing (turning brown) so quickly.

I like just avocado, red onion, garlic powder, and cumin.I do not put lime or lemon in it. I do not care for that taste, and usually eat what I make at the same time.

AlongCame_Molly

Avocado
La Victoria "Hot" salsa
Salt
Pepper

Easy!

(Sometimes I add a little garlic and onion powder, if I want to get fancy)

stacetherainbow

I like just avocado smashed with some lime juice and salt

mommyrocks5

I like to use a couple of ripe avocados, some lime juice, a little salt and pepper (to taste), and some chili garlic sauce.

Here in Mexico most people make guacamole with avocados, onion, cilantro and lime juice and maybe a bit of salt and pepper.
The guacamole in tourist places is much fancier....lol.

UnoDrea3732

1 Avocado
Cilantro
1/2 Tomato
1/4 Yellow Onion
Garlic Powder to Taste
Salt/Pepper to Taste

Avocado
La Victoria "Hot" salsa
Salt
Pepper

Easy!

This would be my suggestion to make it easy. Good luck on your dinner, hope it turns out well.

If you wanted to go all out and break your back making a guacamole totally from scratch it would just be my fave standby
2 avocados
2 roma tomatoes
1/2 chopped spanish onion
fresh cilantro to taste
fresh jalapeno's one or two
fresh lime juice
ground sea salt
freshly cracked black pepper

but we have these things lying around all the time so it's easy. I wouldn't go out shopping for everything at the last minute. If I were throwing together a dinner and wanted to limit my time and budget and didn't already have all these ingredients handy or the tools to chop em up fast, Molly's recipe sounds so yummy. And I know that salsa is good and would make your guacamole yummy.

mommy3457

I didn't know there were all these different ways to make it. :happy:

mommy3457

I think I'm going to make mine with two avocados, diced tomatoes which have garlic and onion seasoning, lemon juice (I only have a lemon), a bit of garlic powder, salt, and pepper. I hope it tastes good! I'm obsessed with Chipotle so I wanted to make my own version.
