This is hands down the BEST guacamole recipe on the internet and it only requires 5 ingredients and 10 minutes of your time!

Homemade Guacamole
Is there really anything better than eating guacamole with tortilla chips? Oh, wait, eating it with one of our homemade frozen margaritas! In 2015, Linley and I went on an avocado tour in Uruapan, Mexico and learned how to make guacamole from the experts!
There is only one little thing that I add to my guac recipe that many of Mexicans in Uruapan don’t use. Any guesses? GARLIC.
I was surprised too…mostly because I add garlic to everything. Nonetheless, this really is the best guacamole recipe and I can’t wait for you to make it!

How to Cut an Avocado
Before making a big batch of delicious guacamole, you have to safely cut into the avocados to cut out the meat. Here is how we cut our avocados!
- Cut the avocado in half lengthwise.
- Twist the avocado a part so that one half has the avocado pit and the other is empty.
- Place a towel in your hand and then hold the half of the avocado with the pit in the middle.
- Use a knife and carefully (but firmly) press the knife into the pit of the avocado. Twist the pit and pull.
- The avocado pit should easily come out of the avocado half.
- Discard the avocado pit and use the pitted avocado for guacamole.

Ingredients You Need
- Avocado: ripe avocados are key to amazing guacamole! Give your avocados a little squeeze, they should be slightly soft, but not too mushy.
- Cilantro: To love or to hate cilantro? Cilantro is a key flavor in homemade guacamole. Make sure to use freshly chopped cilantro as dried cilantro just isn’t the same.
- Garlic: our signature guacamole recipe is made with 3 cloves of garlic. Feel free to use around a tablespoon of pre-minced garlic if you have that instead.
- Red onion: I LOVE raw onion and this recipe calls for just a little bit of minced red onion. It goes a long way!
- Lime Juice: A little bit of fresh citric acid is really going to make your guacamole shine.
- Sea salt: getting the salt just right in guacamole is very important. If it’s under-salted, you won’t be able to taste all of the fresh flavors as well and if it’s over-salted, well, no one wants to eat it!
HOW TO TELL IF AN AVOCADO IS RIPE
I’ve mentioned that using ripe avocados for homemade guacamole is extremely important. Sometimes, doing the squeeze test just doesn’t cut it.
So, how can you tell if an avocado is ripe or not?
Simply pull the avocado stem off of the bottom of the avocado and if it removes easily, you know it’s ripe! The avocado should be slightly soft to squeeze and will likely be darker in color, too!
How to Make Guacamole
Once all of your ingredients are set out and ready to go all you need is a large bowl and you are ready to make homemade guacamole!
Start off by scooping the flesh out of your ripe avocados. Place them in a bowl and mash them with a fork to create a smooth consistency.

Mix Guacamole Ingredients Together
Next, add in cilantro, minced garlic, minced red onion, lime juice, jalapeño, and sea salt to the mashed avocado. Mix everything until combined.
don’t forget to taste test!
Make sure to give your guacamole a taste test because this is where you’ll add more lime juice and/or salt.
Remember, you can’t take away these two ingredients, so it’s best if you under season to begin with!

Guacamole Variations
Spicy: Add minced jalapeño or even a serrano pepper to give your guacamole some kick. We recommend starting slow with a 1/2 medium jalapeño and then adding more from there.
Mango Guacamole: jazz up your savory guacamole with something sweet! Add about 1/2 cup of diced fresh mango to your guacamole for a tropical flare.
Chunky Guacamole: if you’re a lover of all things chunky, try adding some diced tomato to your guacamole and keeping the avocados a bit lumpier for a chunky-style guacamole.

Yum! I love guacamole, especially with my burger. Thanks for sharing your recipe!
We love guac on burgers, too!
It is good to hear that your store is now expanding sarah trench coat to new locations. I have been a patron of Fantastic Eyes because of all the wonderful work that you guys do. I hope that this expansion move of yours will turn out to be successful. I will definitely go and see this new store of yours Thank you.
Actually, the red onion makes this homemade guacamole, which is already extremely tasty, much better. In addition, if you’re interested in the latest fashion, I advise you to get this Kansas City Chiefs White Satin Jacket since it is really distinctive.
Really, these homemade guacamole are very good in taste and the addition of red onion makes it even better. Apart from this, if we talk about the fashion trend, I suggest you to buy this Nick Sirianni Philadelphia Eagles Olive Green Hoodie because it is very unique.
I had a lot of harvest after seeing this post of yours! Before, I used to play games, this is a fun game for entertainment, but now I will follow you, read your articles will have more knowledge.
Looking at this dish, I feel summer, both cool and frugal. Last summer I also ate it all the time, the taste was great and you should try it too.
be wary of over mashing the avacado – I thought I didn’t like it chunky, but smooth becomes kinda soupy. With the whole lime, this doesn’t turn brown for over 24 hours in a sealed container. Best to eat immediately (or after chilled for an hour), lots of liquid pools in it after a couple days.
this recipe is easy and delicious! we make it all the time… (and add more cayenne to spice it up) LOVE IT! tip – leave the pits in the container when refrigerating… it’s lasts longer without going brown.
This was a wonderful recipe!
How much salt?
Start with 1/4 teaspoon and go from there!
Just wanted to point out that salt isn’t listed in the ingredients.
I love it, looks delicious!
What’s your fav chip for the guac?
Way Better Snacks!!
How long does this stay fresh for? Can you freeze it?
Thank you!
If you put the guac in an air tight container and then place the avocado pit in it…it should stay fresh for a couple of days! I’ve never tried freezing guac, so I’m not sure!
Yum! I love guacamole, especially with my burger. Thanks for sharing your recipe!
GUAC ON BURERS. Genius.
When I lived in Mexico I used to get made fun of for making chunky guac like yours because they think of guacamole as a more liquidy sauce that they can garnish dishes with. I prefer tons and tons of avocado goodness. This looks delish!
DOODE. Did you ever eat their “avocado salsa?” It’s pretty much like thinned out guac, but they claim is different!
Ya that’s what I was thinking of! Just a thin guacamole 😉
DO NOT leave me alone with guacamole. You won’t ever see it again! XD
LOL. WORD.
This is similar to my go-to guac recipe but I like to add fresh tomatoes and cumin! Yummo!!
I can’t wait to read your San Miguel recap. Did you ever end up making it to La Mezcaleria for their Traditional Snack Board and Mezcal?
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh GUAC! And no we didn’t 🙁 We passed it though, but didn’t have time to go in! NEXT TIME FOR SURE.
