This party-time guacamole is spicy, quick, and relatively healthy. Refrigerate guacamole with plastic wrap against the surface of the dip to prolong shelf life. Serve with tortilla chips or your favorite dipping accompaniment.

Ingredients

3 ripe avocados, peeled and pitted
lemon, juiced
3 Roma tomatoes, seeded and finely chopped
4 scallions, white parts only, thinly sliced
3 jalapeno peppers, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon sea salt
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

Directions

Add avocados and lemon juice to a medium mixing bowl; mash until desired consistency is almost reached. Stir in tomatoes, scallions, jalapeno peppers, garlic, cilantro, salt, red pepper flakes, pepper, and cayenne. Taste guacamole and adjust for seasoning.

Cook's Notes:

Lemon juice not only adds flavor, but the acid keeps the avocado from oxidizing. Limes can be used in place of the lemon at a ratio of 2 limes to 1 lemon.

When preparing the jalapenos, discard seeds for a more mellow dip or keep them in for an extra kick.
