Authentic Guacamole Recipe

I recently got back from a trip to Mexico and you guys, I have fallen in love with this authentic guacamole recipe. It’s incredibly easy to make and it tastes so darn fresh!

The Best Guacamole Recipe

We stayed at the Marival Resort and Spa in Nuevo Vallarta. At the Mexican a la carte, they made authentic guacamole tableside.

It was a game changer, and I loved seeing how authentic guacamole was made. It made me realize that I didn’t have to over think it by adding more spices and ingredients.

You seriously don’t need much.

It was a fun experience to see our serves mashing avocado with a mortar and pestle. As soon as I got home, I ran to Costco to grab the ingredients and then purchased a mortar and pestle (here’s the one I bought).

I was surprised when I saw them using the mortar and pestle, as before I always used my blender. This way was a lot more fun and it got my son involved too!

Not only is this guacamole recipe delicious with tortilla chips and vegetables but it also makes a delicious topping on burgers. I recommend trying it with this sweet n’ spicy sriracha pineapple turkey burger.

Authentic Guacamole Recipe

At the Mexican a la carte they had the following options for the guacamole:

• avocados
• jalapenos
• white onion
• limes
• tomatoes
• salt and pepper

I hate raw tomato (and I also have an intolerance to raw tomatoes too – it’s an enzyme thing) so we made ours without, but you can easily add it to your own if you love the popular nightshade.

One of the best parts of this recipe is that it’s customizable. To be totally honest here, I don’t measure. I simply add the ingredients, but this I wrote down what it looked like I added to mix.
