I love any reason to celebrate, and the 5th of May is no exception! Last year&#8217;s festivities were a little more low key because of the pandemic. However, we still found ways to celebrate. One of those ways was creating the easiest guacamole recipe ever! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was always a little apprehensive when it came to guacamole. It was never one of my favorite foods until I conjured up this little recipe! It pairs perfectly with any sort of taco night. Add my <a href=\"https:\/\/laurencunningham.co\/?p=61\">green salsa<\/a> and you have got yourself a full-blown fiesta! With just three main ingredients, this really is the easiest guacamole to make!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I love this recipe because it is highly versatile. Depending on the size of the avocado, you might need to add a little bit more or less of the other ingredients and that is a-okay! Guac is a very easy food to taste test. Don&#8217;t worry about messing it up! Below the ingredient list, I have added several other add-in options. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/laurencunningham.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lauren-cunningham-holistic-wellness-44-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Easiest Guacamole\" class=\"wp-image-138\" srcset=\"https:\/\/laurencunningham.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lauren-cunningham-holistic-wellness-44-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/laurencunningham.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lauren-cunningham-holistic-wellness-44-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/laurencunningham.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lauren-cunningham-holistic-wellness-44-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/laurencunningham.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lauren-cunningham-holistic-wellness-44-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/laurencunningham.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lauren-cunningham-holistic-wellness-44-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/laurencunningham.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lauren-cunningham-holistic-wellness-44-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/laurencunningham.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/lauren-cunningham-holistic-wellness-44-1600x1200.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ingredients: <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>1 medium size ripe avocado (if it is not ripe, you will have a hard time mashing it)<\/li><li>1\/4 of a red onion, diced<\/li><li>Juice from half of a lemon<\/li><li>Salt<\/li><li>Pepper<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Optional add-ins:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Pinch of chopped cilantro (or more depending on your preference)<\/li><li>1 tbsp. tomato, chopped<\/li><li>Lime juice instead of lemon juice<\/li><li>Red pepper flakes if you want a little spice<\/li><li>White onion instead of a red onion<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Directions:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Slice open an avocado and discard the pit and skin.
