Easy Homemade Guacamole

I really had no idea how easy it is to make your own guacamole and it’s so much more natural and fresh than buying the stuff. This is my new favorite summer snack!

Ingredients:

  • 3 avocados
  • 4 heaping tbsp chunky salsa
  • Juice from 2 small limes
  • Dash of cumin
  • Garlic salt to taste

Directions:

  1. Cut avocados in half and twist to separate. Spoon out insides into a bowl.
  2. Dice the avocados in the bowl, using a sharp knife. Add salsa, garlic salt, cumin and lime juice.
  3. Serve with salted tortilla chips.

Tip: Cover the avocados with lime as quickly as possible to prevent guacamole from turning brown. Wrap tightly to store.

Serves: 4
