Steps:
- Halve and pit 2 ripe avocados and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.
- Mash the avocados with a fork until the mixture reaches a coarse, chunky consistency. Stir in the remaining ingredients: 1 onion, minced, 1 garlic clove, minced and mashed to a paste with ½ tsp. salt, an additional ½ tsp. salt, 4 tsp. lime juice, ½ tsp. ground cumin, 1 jalapeño, seeded and minced, and 3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, if using. Taste and adjust seasoning. MAKE AHEAD: This guacamole recipe can be made two hours in advance. Press plastic wrap flush with the surface of the dip to prevent oxidation. Let it come to room temperature before serving.

Steps:
- 1. In a medium sized mixing bowl: Cut the avocados into small chunks (1/2 cubes). Add the garlic - you can smash and chop it, put it through a garlic press, or (as I prefer) use a zester or very small grater and grate it right into the bowl. Add the zest of the lime. Add the juice of the lime. Add 1/2 cup of fresh chopped salsa (mild, medium or hot according to your preference), mostly drained (you want the veggies, not the juice). Add one teaspoon of hot sauce (I like Tabasco or Franks). Stir it all together until you have a nice chunky guacamole.
- 2. This recipe is quick and easy to make because I use the fresh chopped salsa (not the bottled stuff - the fresh salsa from the deli/cheese aisle). It has the tomatoes, onions, peppers and cilantro that I would otherwise have to prep individually. It's a great time saver.
- 3. If you want a little more heat, lime or garlic, add to desired taste. (I tend to use a little more of each - I start with the basics above, and then add to taste.)

SUPER SIMPLE GUACAMOLE TOPPING
Avocados are a nutrient-dense super food that everyone should eat more often. Unfortunately, store-bought guacamole often has low-avocado content and high calories, and homemade guacamole requires several other fresh ingredients, lots of chopping, and often added salt. This light, simple guacamole is quick and easy to make. Top tacos or any spicy, Mexican-style dish with a tablespoon or two for a heart-healthy bonus! Store in refrigerator.
