My favorite version by far. Sometimes I just use minced shallot in place of onion and garlic.

This was amazing! I am a big fan of guacamole and pretty picky. This was by far the best one I've had I just used less lime juice, instead of 1 tbsp I just poured a little at a time and tasted it to my liking. I only diced 1 tomato and used 1/4 of an onion.

Ok but mashing the alv. just made it messy and cumin was a bit much...
