If you're not in the mood to be fussy, this could be considered a minimum-viable guacamole recipe.
- 2 ripe avocados
- 2-4 limes, depending on juiciness, delivering 2-4T of lime juice
- 1 diced tomato (seeded if it's a big one)
- salt (to taste)
- hot sauce (to taste; Frank's Red Hot is a standard, but go with what you like)
- Scoop the avocado meat into a bowl and mash them with a fork. Leave it a bit lumpy as we will do more stirring in a bit and we don't want to over-work them.
- Add the chopped tomato.
- Add the lime juice; hold some back for later adjustment).
- Add ½t salt.
- Add 2T hot sauce.
- Stir with the fork again.
- Taste.
- Adjust salt/lime/hot sauce as desired.
This recipe will support one average-size bag of chips, so adjust quantities based on expectations.
