Our flavorful fiesta dip recipe calls for ripe avocados – the star of any authentic guacamole recipe. The creamy texture pairs perfectly with the crunch of tortilla chips. The red onion adds a sharp bite while tomatoes lend a sweet tanginess. The jalapeno gives our homemade guacamole with fresh cilantro its kick!

Next up in this DIY restaurant-style guacamole is chopping your veggies finely and adding them to the mix along with lime juice for that lime juice infused guacamole taste we all love! A sprinkle of salt and pepper ties everything together before you serve it up on a platter surrounded by crispy tortilla chips.
