We’re pretty new to the trendy world of avocados and guacamole but I think you’ll agree that we’ve caught up fast with this amazing homemade Guacamole!
When Miss Frugal and I went to New York last month we discovered Chipotle which is a kind of fast food chain but the food is Mexican and honestly, the most amazing food I’ve had in a long time. We had it for lunch on three of the days we were there as we enjoyed it so much and it was really good value for money compared to some of the other things we could have chosen from.
We’re a bit gutted that there’s not a Chipotle near us so we’ve decided to take matters into our own hands and have a go at making our own version. We’ve started off with trying to master homemade guacamole and after a couple of different attempts (over a few weeks as we were waiting for reduced avocados :-)) I think we’ve hit the jackpot with this recipe….
How to make the most amazing homemade Guacamole you’ve ever tasted
2 ripe avocados
The freshly squeezed juice of one lime
1/2 chilli, finely chopped
2 tablespoons of finely chopped onion (red onion is lovely but I just used normal today)
Two finely chopped fresh tomatoes (I use 1 sundried tomato as I think the flavour is so much richer)
Salt and pepper to season
- Mash the avocado with the lime juice.
- Stir through the chilli, onion and tomato.
- Have a cheeky taste and season until you’re happy with the taste.
Enjoy!
Now we just have to master the Chipotle chicken that we loved so much and we’re almost there!
