Instructions
Cut the avocados in half and remove the seeds. With a large spoon, scoop out the flesh and place it into the food processor with all of the ingredients.
Blend the guacamole until smooth and creamy.
Adjust seasoning if nessesary and serve with tortilla chips or tacos.
Notes
When picking avocados, make sure the stem is intact. If the stem is removed, the faster the avocado will turn. The perfect avocado should have a slight give to it.
Use the pulse button on your food processor to control the texture.
On my first attempt, I added too much red onion and lime juice resulting in a sour flavor. Instead of juicing a whole lime, I recommend adding 1 tablespoon of lime juice at a time.
To keep guacamole from turning brown place a piece of plastic wrap directly on top to prevent oxidation.
