Guacamole is a versatile condiment that can be used as a snack, a tasty dip, a great spread for toast or burgers, and a complementary side dish for many Mexican meals. It is easy and fast to prepare, making it a must-have at any gathering. The key to its delicious flavor lies in the use of fresh ingredients, resulting in a well-balanced taste that is not overly spicy or sour, with the avocado being the star component.

1. Add the avocados to a bowl and mash them with a fork until they reach your favorite consistency.
2. Chop all the veggies in small pieces, add the mashed avocado and mix until combined.
3. Add some salt and if you like it spicier, add the jalapeno or some chilly flakes, but for a tangier guacamole, you can add more lime juice.
Enjoy! ❤
