Creamy, bright, and loaded with fresh flavor, this guacamole hits every note you want from a crowd-pleasing dip. Ripe avocados get mashed with lime juice, cilantro, red onion, jalapeño, and garlic for a bold, layered taste that store-bought versions simply can't match. The heat level is easy to control since the jalapeño seeds are removed before mincing, so you get a gentle kick without overwhelming the whole bowl. Carrot sticks, celery, cucumber, and red bell pepper strips round out the spread with satisfying crunch and natural sweetness that pairs perfectly with the rich, tangy dip. Everything here is entirely plant-based, so there's zero concern about animal proteins sneaking into your snack spread. It comes together in just a few minutes with nothing more than a fork and a cutting board, making it an effortless go-to for parties, game days, or a quick afternoon snack.

4 servings

For the guacamole

3 ripe avocados
2 tbsp fresh lime juice (from about 1 lime)
¼ tsp fine sea salt, plus more to taste
¼ cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
2 tbsp red onion, finely diced
1 jalapeño, seeds removed and finely minced
1 garlic clove, minced

For the veggie sticks

2 medium carrots, cut into sticks

1 medium red bell pepper, seeded and cut into strips

Instructions

1
Place the avocado flesh in a medium mixing bowl. Add the lime juice and salt, then mash with a fork to your preferred consistency — chunky with visible avocado pieces, or smoother with just a few lumps remaining.

Fold in the cilantro, red onion, jalapeño, and garlic until evenly distributed. Taste and adjust salt as needed.
