- 3-4 large ripe avocados

- 1 Roma tomato chopped

- Add the avocados, lime juice, salt, and cumin and mash with a fork until the avocados are mostly broken down and only smaller chunks remain. If you prefer chunkier guacamole, just don't mash it quite as much. If you prefer smoother guac, keep on going until it's the consistency you desire. Stir in the chopped tomato.3-4 large ripe avocados, 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt, 1/8 teaspoon cumin, 2 Tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice, 1 Roma tomato, Black pepper
