DIRECTIONS:
Cut avocados in half and remove the pit. Scoop out avocado from the peel and put it in a mixing bowl.
Mash the avocado with a fork. Add the chopped onion, cilantro, lime or lemon, salt and pepper, and continue mashing until ingredients are well mixed.
Keep the tomatoes separate until ready to serve.
Cover with plastic wrap directly on the surface of the guacamole to prevent oxidation. Exposure to air discolors avocado.
Refrigerate until ready.
Just before serving, add the chopped tomato to the guacamole and mix.
