Ingredients
  

  • 4 avocados
  • 3 roma tomatoes
  • 1 small red onion
  • 2 jalapeños optional
  • 2 limes
  • 1/4 cup cilantro chopped
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika

Instructions
 

  • Heat a stove top or outdoor grill to medium-high and lightly grease with cooking spray or vegetable oil.
  • Cut the avocados in half, remove the seeds, but keep the skin. Grill, face down, for about 2 to 3 minutes to develop grill marks. Transfer to a plate or platter, and allow to cool down. Cut the tomatoes in half, lengthwise, and grill for 2 to 3 minutes to char the one side. Transfer to plate. Cut the red onion into large rings. Keep the rings in tact, and grill for 2 to 3 minutes per side. Cut the jalapeños and limes in half, and grill for 1 to 2 minutes. Allow all the veggies to cool.
  • Cut the grilled veggies into chunks and throw them into a bowl. Mash everything together along with the chopped cilantro, seasonings and the juice of the grilled limes, until completely combined. Serve with chips or cut up veggies. Enjoy!
