Ingredients
Serves: 8| 3 | ripe, Fresh California Avocados, seeded and peeled | |
| 1/2 | tsp. | kosher salt |
| 1 | medium sweet pink grapefruit, halved | |
| 1/2 | medium jalapeño, seeded and diced | |
| 1 | small yellow onion, peeled and diced | |
| 1/2 | tsp. | cumin (comino) |
| 1 | Tbsp. | chopped cilantro leaves |
As with all fruits and vegetables, wash avocados before cutting. Check out our tips for how to choose and use California Avocados
Instructions
- Place the avocado in a bowl and sprinkle with kosher salt.
- Squeeze the juice from one grapefruit half over the avocado.
- Mash the avocado and grapefruit juice, until chunky-smooth (or to your textural preference). Set aside.
- Remove the meat from both halves of the grapefruit in whichever way is easiest for you. I prefer to cut them into quarters and cut the meat out of each quarter and then chop it.
- Cut the grapefruit meat with a small knife and add it to the avocado mixture
- Add the jalapeño and onion to the avocado mixture.
- Top with cumin and cilantro and mix.
- Serve.
Note: Make sure the grapefruit is sweet, and this guacamole will wow your friends and family with its unexpected flavor.
Large avocados are recommended for this recipe. A large avocado averages about 8 ounces. If using smaller or larger size avocados adjust the quantity accordingly.
