Ingredients

  • 4 avocados
  • 2 tablespoons pico de gallo
  • Juice of ½ lime
  • 2 chopped Jalapeño OR 2 tablespoons of crushed red pepper OR 1 tablespoon of cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1 ½ teaspoon minced garlic
  • ½ teaspoon of ground black pepper
  • 1 minced jalapeño OR 2 minced serrano chiles OR 2 tablespoon minced of any chile pepper like (adjust for spiciness)

Directions

1

Halve and pit the avocados.

2

Score the avocado flesh in a criss-cross pattern without cutting through the skin.

3

Scoop out the flesh of one half with a large spoon and place in mixing bowl.

4

Add the lime juice and stir to evenly coat the avocados.

5

Stir in the pico de gallo, garlic, oil, jalapeño, salt, red pepper, and black pepper, mashing and tossing the avocado pieces until thoroughly mixed.
