Easy Homemade Guacamole

Perfectly amazing, simply the best Easy Homemade Guacamole we’ve ever made!
If you have never been a fan of guacamole, or only felt so-so about it, try out this Easy Homemade Guacamole for an all new appreciation for this avocado dip. I’m not even kidding…we have never been able to get our youngest, Lauren, to eat avocado without mashing and mixing it with something and most of the time even that was an uphill struggle. Not this time! She was so enthused about this guacamole that she asked for more! I think I about fell over 🙂
We are so happy to have finally made a guacamole recipe, that does not include sour cream, that the littlest one will eat. Plus, it’s so quick and easy there’s just no excuse not to make it (or more!).
To Make Your Homemade Guacamole…
If you don’t have a mortar and pestle, simply mash the avocado, lime pulp & juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Add the onion, cilantro, tomato, garlic, jalapeno, and smoked paprika and then stir all of the ingredients to combine them. That’s it! Fabulously easy homemade guacamole!
Just a quick final note, that if you do happen to have a smoker…we actually smoked the onion, garlic, and tomato that we used for this day’s guacamole (as pictured here). Even though the onion and garlic flavors are a bit more subtle, the taste is still outstanding! Enjoy!
