Ripe avocados

2, peeled, pitted, and diced

Tomatoes

2 medium, diced

Red onion

1/4 cup, finely diced

Fresh cilantro

1/4 cup, chopped

Lime juice

2 tablespoons, freshly squeezed

Garlic

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, cut the ripe avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into the bowl.
2. Using a fork, gently mash the avocados to your desired creaminess, leaving some chunks for texture.
3. Add the diced tomatoes, finely diced red onion, chopped cilantro, minced garlic, lime juice, cumin, cayenne pepper, and salt to the bowl with the avocados.
4. Gently fold all the ingredients together until well combined, being careful not to over-mash the avocados.
