Cinco de Mayo Edition: Powered by the United States Karate Academy
Happy Cinco de Mayo, Karate Family and Colorado Springs community!
Whether youโre training hard on the mats or gathering with friends and family tomorrow, this fresh, vibrant guacamole is the perfect way to celebrate. Itโs simple, healthy, packed with flavor, and ready in minutes. Fuel up like a champion!Black
๐๐ฒ๐น๐ ๐๐๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐บ๐ผ๐น๐ฒ ๐ฅ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฝ๐ฒ
๐๐ป๐ด๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐
3 large ripe Hass avocados
1 lime, juiced (about 2 tbsp)
ยฝ tsp sea salt (or to taste)
ยผ cup diced white or red onion
3 tbsp finely chopped cilantro
1 jalapeรฑo, seeds removed for milder heat
Optional: 1 diced Roma tomato & 1 minced garlic clove
๐๐ป๐๐๐ฟ๐๐ฐ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐
1. Slice the avocados, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash with a fork or potato masher to your preferred consistency (chunky for that authentic feel!).
2. Stir in the lime juice immediately to keep it bright and prevent browning.
3. Mix in the onion, cilantro, jalapeรฑo, and optional garlic.
4. Gently fold in the diced tomato last so it stays fresh and intact.
Serve with tortilla chips, fresh veggies, or alongside your favorite tacos. Pro tip: Make it right before serving for the best flavor and color!
This recipe is all about fresh ingredients and balance...just like a strong karate technique. Itโs quick enough to make after class and impressive enough to share with the whole crew.
Tag us in your guac photos tomorrow! Weโd love to see how you enjoy it. Whether youโre a dojo regular, a Colorado Springs local, or just part of our extended family, weโre grateful to train and celebrate with you.
Have a safe, fun, and delicious Cinco de Mayo!
Enjoy!
