Delight your taste buds with this easy, Chunky Homemade Guacamole. It's perfect for any occasion, blending creamy avocados, zesty lemon, and vibrant cilantro for a delicious Mexican treat that's low in calories but rich in flavor.
Ingredients:
Step 1: Prepare the Avocados
Start by gently removing the skin and seed from the avocados. Next, cut them into roughly 1-inch cubes to keep our guacamole nice and chunky. Place these avocado cubes into a large mixing bowl. This step is crucial for achieving that delightful, chunky texture we all love in a good guacamole.
Pro Tip: Keep the avocado pit in the guacamole until serving to help prevent browning.
Step 2: Mix in Flavors
To the bowl of avocado, add 1/2 cup of your preferred store-bought pico de gallo and a teaspoon of garlic salt. Carefully stir these together to ensure every avocado chunk is lovingly coated. Now, for a burst of freshness, squeeze the juice of one lemon over the top. Continue to stir while adding the juice to evenly distribute the delightful zesty flavor throughout the guacamole.
Pro Tip: The acidity of the lemon not only adds flavor but also helps keep the guacamole vibrant and green.
Step 3: Season to Taste
Finish off your masterpiece by seasoning your guacamole with a bit of salt and pepper. This is the moment to taste and adjust according to your preference. The salt enhances the flavors, while the pepper adds a slight kick that makes this guacamole truly unforgettable.
Pro Tip: Start with a light hand on the salt and gradually add to taste to avoid overpowering the delicate avocado flavor.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy
Your Chunky Homemade Guacamole is now ready to serve! Present it with a generous garnish of fresh cilantro leaves and a side of crunchy tortilla chips. It's an irresistible combination that's sure to be a hit, whether as a game day snack, a party starter, or simply a delicious treat to enjoy at home.
Pro Tip: For an extra dash of color and flavor, sprinkle some diced tomatoes or radishes on top before serving.
