Ingredients
4 medium avocados
2 firm tomatoes, seeded and finely diced
1 medium white onion
1½ c. chopped cilantro
3 T. fresh lime juice
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Directions
- Cut the avocados in half lengthwise and remove the pit before scooping out the flesh. (Carefully strike the pit with a chef’s knife and twist to easily remove it).
- Mash the avocado flesh with a fork and combine with tomato, onion, cilantro, and fresh lime juice. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste.
- Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for later use. Squeeze extra lime juice over the top before covering tightly with plastic wrap to prevent browning.
