Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ripe avocados
  • 1 small red onion, finely diced
  • 1 tomato, chopped
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional Add-ins:
  • 1 jalapeño, finely chopped (for spice)
  • ½ teaspoon cumin powder
  • ¼ cup sour cream (for creaminess)
  • Monster Decorations:
  • 2 black olive slices (for eyes)
  • 1 slice red bell pepper (for mouth)
  • Tortilla chips or carrot sticks (for hair)
  • Cherry tomatoes or corn kernels (for decoration)

Instructions

  1. Slice the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium bowl.
  2. Mash the avocados with a fork until you reach your desired texture (chunky or smooth).
  3. Stir in diced onion, tomato, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Add jalapeño or sour cream if desired.
  4. Taste and adjust seasonings — add more lime or salt as needed.
  5. Spread guacamole evenly in a shallow serving dish.
  6. Decorate with olive slices for eyes, red pepper for the mouth, and tortilla chips for hair to create a monster face.
  7. Serve immediately with tortilla chips or veggie sticks.

Notes

Use ripe avocados for the best texture and flavor. Add lime juice early to prevent browning. For extra fun, let kids decorate their own monster faces using olives, peppers, and chips! Store leftovers in the refrigerator with plastic wrap pressed against the surface to avoid oxidation.
