1 lime

1/2 cup diced onion

1 minced garlic clove

1 large beefsteak tomato or 2 smaller Roma tomatoes, chopped

1 jalapeno pepper

salt and pepper to taste

3 tbs chopped fresh cilantro

hot sauce (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Mash avocados in a medium serving bowl.
  2. Finely dice 1/2 of the jalapeno.  Cut remaining jalapeno in rounds for garnish.  (If you like it spicy, feel free to dice the entire pepper!)

  4. Season with remaining lime juice (if desired) and add hot sauce to taste.
