Ingredients

3 medium avocados ripe
2 green onions tops only, or use chives
½ lime juiced

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Finely chop the green onion tops, cilantro and jalapeño (pith and seeds removed), if using.
Add the avocado and remaining ingredients to a medium-sized bowl.
Use a fork, pastry cutter or potato masher to mash the combined ingredients to your desired level of creaminess. A pastry cutter is my secret weapon to making quick and easy work of mashing avocadoes.
Taste and add extra seasoning if desired. See Notes for suggested add-ins.

How to store

Leftovers will keep in the refrigerator for a few days if stored in an airtight container. To keep your guacamole from turning brown, use plastic wrap. Cover the entire surface of the guacamole and press the plastic wrap down so there are no air gaps. You can also try adding more citrus, which also helps to prevent browning.

Optional add-ins

Some of my favorite add-ins are:

Garlic-infused olive oil – about 1 teaspoon is plenty
Chopped or ground nuts and seeds – pepitas, sunflower seeds, cashews, slivered almonds, flax seeds, chia or hemp hearts
Chipotle powder – a low-FODMAP chili powder for extra heat
Tomatoes or bell peppers, pomegranate seeds or baby spinach – extra texture, flavor and crunch
Sour cream, mayonnaise or yogurt – for extra creaminess
Egg yolks – make 'yolk-a-mole' with egg yolks or dried egg yolk powder, which is pasteurized
Salsa – add some Radish Salsa or Chipotle Tomatillo Salsa Verde
Herbs and spices – add dill, a pinch of cumin, adobo, curry or homemade Tikka Masala Powder
Top with crispy bacon – because bacon goes with everything!
