This was so easy to make and so good! I didn’t have any tomatoes so I added a can of diced tomato and green chili.
Kyle Conner
I really like this recipe. It’s so easy, but so authentic. Make it all the time!

Only thing I would suggest is to refrigerate for 2 hours we ate before refrigerating and then after and was definitely different for the best
Jackie Hopkins
It’s quite good and was easy to make! Great for dipping chips.

Excellent. Great taste. NO SALT added due to my restrictions. I added garlic 3 cloves.

The recipe was so good my sister and my mom made it together, it wasn’t even that spicy i couldn’t taste the jalapeno. Awesome recipe 🙂

The only thing I might would change, is a little less lemon juice. Otherwise, it’s absolutely delicious!

No, just no! I definitely prefer lime to lemon in guacamole. That being said this was way too much even if I would’ve substituted it for lime. There are much better recipes out there for guacamole.

Too much tomato, and you use LIME juice for authentic guacamole, not lemon juice. Also, don’t overmash the avocados. They will become greasy, not creamy, since they are very high in natural oil. Instead, for a better texture, mash lightly with a fork, leaving the mixture fairly chunky.

I loved it! However, I had to substitute fresh ingredients with freeze-dried and 1 canned item including Cilantro, Jalapenos, and Diced tomatoes with green chilies. I would have preferred to use fresh, however, I didn’t feel like going to the store. Tastes great even with the substitutes! Can’t wait to try it with fresh ingredients next time!

A hit with my daughter and granddaughter! Made as written with exception of added 1 TBLSP of fresh minced garlic. Delish!
Robin Alvarez
This is the best guacamole. I’ve made it this way for years except, I don’t actually measure the ingredients. I just chop the onions, tomatoes, and cilantro and, eye ball it. I also use lime juice instead of lemon juice.

some more clarity required

Simple combination of natural ingredients that burst with flavor.

I like this recipe but all the “traditional” mexican versions i have seen contain tomatillo which is readily available in every Walmart in the US. along with a bit of tomato for color mostly. Great recipe just not what I would call traditional.
