• Prep Time: 15 minutes
• Cook Time: 0 minutes
• Total Time: 15 minutes
• Servings: 4
• Skill Level: Easy

• 3 ripe avocados
• 1 small red onion, finely chopped
• 1-2 jalapeños, seeded and finely chopped
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1 lime, juiced
• 1 small bunch of cilantro, chopped
• 1 medium tomato, diced (optional)
• 1/2 teaspoon cumin
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Gluten-free tortilla chips for serving

1. Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a large mixing bowl.
2. Use a fork or a potato masher to mash the avocados to your desired texture. For a chunkier guacamole, mash lightly and leave some larger pieces.
3. Add the finely chopped red onion, jalapeños, and minced garlic to the bowl. Mix well.
4. Stir in the lime juice, chopped cilantro, diced tomato (if using), and cumin. Mix until well combined.
5. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
6. Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl and garnish with additional slices of jalapeño and a sprinkle of cilantro.
7. Serve immediately with gluten-free tortilla chips. Enjoy!

• If you prefer a milder guacamole, remove the seeds from the jalapeños or use only one.
• To prevent the guacamole from browning, place plastic wrap directly on its surface, and keep it refrigerated if not serving immediately.

Storage Instructions:

Store any leftover guacamole in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To help maintain its color, press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface before sealing the container.

Variations:

• Add diced mango or pineapple for a touch of sweetness and a tropical twist.
• Mix in some crumbled feta cheese or cotija for added creaminess and flavor.

This Spicy Guacamole pairs beautifully with grilled chicken or fish tacos, and a refreshing side salad. For drinks, try serving it with a chilled glass of limeade or a sparkling grapefruit soda for a perfect balance to the spiciness.
