Ingredients
- 2 Avocados
- 1 Lime
- 2 tbsp Red onion
- 2 tbsp Cilantro
- 1 oz Tortilla chips
- 1/2 tsp Salt
Steps
- Cut both avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium bowl.
- Mash with a fork using firm, short strokes until chunky — stop while you can still see distinct avocado pieces.
- Squeeze in the juice of 1 lime right away and stir; the acid keeps the green color bright.
- Fold in the red onion, cilantro, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
- Taste with a chip and adjust salt at the very end — one more pinch usually wakes everything up.
- Serve immediately with tortilla chips; to hold it briefly, press plastic wrap directly onto the surface to block air.
