This 5 ingredient guacamole recipe has loads of flavor and is perfect for serving as a dip with chips or for dolloping on tacos, enchiladas, and burritos. It’s quick and simple and so TASTY!
When it comes to guacamole recipes, I have to admit I’m a bit of a purist. I like to mostly taste avocado with some seasonings and lime juice to enhance the flavor. Don’t get me wrong, if I’m at a restaurant or someone’s house and they are serving guacamole with huge chunks of tomato and onion in it, I still eat it HAPPILY and without complaint. Any guacamole is better than no guacamole. You can quote me on that! But this simple 5 ingredient guacamole recipe has everything I want or need, and it’s so fast and easy to make!
Are you team cilantro? Or are you not a big fan? It seems like you either love it or you hate it. Our whole family is in love with cilantro. If you are too, this recipe is for you! If you aren’t you can leave it out, but it adds a little extra freshness to the dish that I really love.
Put this guacamole on any kind of taco or Mexican dish you like to make at your house. Eat it as an appetizer with chips, or carrot sticks, (or a spoon. Hah!) No matter how you eat it you can’t go wrong! Just 5 simple ingredients, it couldn’t be easier!
