Guacamole is one of those wondrous things isn’t it? Creamy avocado at your desired level of smooth or chunky, salted and scooped up with a tortilla chip or spread inside a taco shell.
I.love.guac.
One of the main things I love about guacamole is that it need not be fancy or stuffed full of a million things to be great. Don’t get me wrong, throwing some cilantro in there and adding certain spices is fun, delicious and a great idea. But if you’re low on ingredients, you can whip up an awesome, simple guacamole in no more than 5 ingredients. Four at a push!
Simple Guacamole
Ingredients
- 2 medium avocados, peeled, pitted and smooshed up to your desired level of chunky/smoothness
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- salt, to taste
- lemon juice, to taste
- 1 tomato, diced (optional!)
Directions
You don’t need directions! You literally just smoosh it all up in a bowl and immediately get those tortilla chips out, get the drinks flowing (I’ll have a Tecate, please. Thanks very much.) and get eating!
Guacamole travels well, too — in fact, it’s traveling with me today, as I hit the road for Madison!
