Preparation Steps:

• Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl. Use a fork or potato masher to mash the avocado to your desired consistency—smooth or chunky, it’s up to you!
• Squeeze the juice of half a lime over the mashed avocado. This not only adds flavor but also helps preserve the vibrant green color of the avocados.
• If using, add the minced garlic and chipotles in adobo (or chili powder) to the avocado mixture. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
• Fold in the minced cilantro and kosher salt. Taste and adjust the seasoning as necessary. If you’re a cilantro lover, feel free to add more!
• Transfer your Easy Guacamole to a serving bowl. If desired, garnish with additional chopped cilantro and diced tomatoes for a splash of color and freshness.
