This is just the best. I mashed the avocado but not too much so it would be a little chunky. The seasonings were perfect. I could just taste the cumin which I think makes everything better. Will use this one again as we eat Mexican food a lot. Thanks Sue

    Used 10 drops Tobasco instead of cayenne pepper. Excellent recipe and very easy to make in minutes!

    We made this guacamole to serve with our fajita dinner on Sunday. Excellent! Love the tang the lime juice adds. I didn't change a thing...and won't! We'll be serving this often, thanks for the recipe!

    I like the combination of ingredients, but I think the whole medium onion was too much. I only added about 3/4 of an onion and the taste was overwhelming, even with an added avocado to try to tame it a bit. I made mine with no tomatoes, as I had none. I also added a couple Tbsp. or sour cream.

    This is an excellent guacamole recipe. I made it and also served it with Beef Fajitas (#16871). This was better than the guacamole they taught us to make while vacationing in Mexico. The fresh lime juice really adds a nice flavor.

    I think the amount of lime juice took away some of the avacado flavor you expect in a traditional guacamole. It left my mouth a little dry and tart more than the usual onion and garlic flavors I'd expect. I'd definitely add less lime next time I make it.

    We all loved it at my recipe club. I added a little extra of half a lemon I had and extra garlic and I didn't add the pepper (just the cayenne) or the onion, since we were feeding kids too.

    Delicious! Growing up in Texas, I have had lots of guacamole and this version is top notch. The lime juice and cumin really give it a great flavor. I added 10 drops or so of Tabasco because I like it. I also used a pastry blender to mash the avocado in the interest of keeping it chunky. Great recipe!

    Mmmm! Thanks for sharing this recipe. I made it as written except I added some chopped cilantro. I love the lime flavor and it's very easy to adjust the seasonings to make it spicy or mild, as needed.
