- 3-5 whole ripe avocados mashed
- ½ pomegranate seeds only
- ½ cup red onion diced
- 1 small jalapeño deseeded
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes diced
- ¼ cup cilantro finely chopped
- 1 lime juiced
- ½ tbsp chile lime seasoning or salt
First prepare your produce: Finely dice red onion, cilantro, jalapeño and tomatoes. Remove the pomegranate seeds from the peel. Slice avocados in half and scoop out the inside flesh.
Add the avocados, lime juice, and seasoning into a large bowl. Mash avocados together using a large fork or potato masher. If you like a chunkier guac, do less mashing.
Pour in the guacamole fixings: tomatoes, onions, pomegranate, and cilantro. Stir together. Give it a taste test and add more kosher salt or lime juice if necessary.
Squeeze fresh lime juice over top, garnish with pomegranate seeds, and sprinkle with sea salt. Add the fresh guacamole to a serving bowl. Serve fresh or in a fun way, like on a pile of tortilla chips!
Best served fresh as the avocado will begin to brown in the fridge with extensive storage.
Serve classically with chips or this recipe is also great on top of fish tacos, grilled chicken, on a turkey sandwich or burgers, too.
