Mash Avocados: Use a fork or potato masher to mash the avocado to your preferred texture, whether chunky or smooth.
Add Vegetables and Seasonings: Add the finely chopped onion, diced tomato, minced garlic, chopped jalapeño if desired, fresh lime juice, and chopped cilantro to the mashed avocado.
Combine Ingredients: Stir all ingredients together thoroughly until well mixed and evenly distributed.
Season to Taste: Add salt and pepper to taste, adjusting lime juice or cilantro quantity as needed to balance flavors.

Notes

For a spicier guacamole, leave some jalapeño seeds in or add extra jalapeño.
To keep guacamole from browning, press plastic wrap directly onto the surface before refrigerating.
Use fresh lime juice for the best flavor and to enhance freshness.
Adjust texture by mashing less or more depending on your preference.
Serve immediately for best taste, as guacamole tastes freshest right after preparation.
