• 0.25 teaspoons ground cumin (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Cut the avocados in half and remove the pits. Scoop the flesh into a medium mixing bowl.

Grate or mince the garlic clove and mix it in with the rest of the ingredients.

Step 7

Sprinkle in the kosher salt, ground black pepper, and optionally, ground cumin for an extra layer of flavor.

Step 8

Mash the avocado mixture with a fork or potato masher until it reaches your desired consistency. Leave it chunky or make it smooth based on your preference.

Step 9

Stir all ingredients together until evenly combined.

Step 10

Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt, lime juice, or pepper if needed.

Step 11

Serve immediately with tortilla chips, as a side dish, or on top of your favorite dishes like tacos or burritos.
