1. Mash the avocado, leaving a few rough chunks.
2. Stir in the remaining ingredients.

Miss Annie, This is exactly how I make my guacamole and I just posted it today. Maybe I should have looked. I will be first to say that its the best guacamole I have ever had.

Miss Annie Yes...we love guacamole with lemon juice! I added a little hot sauce to it for a bite, and salsa. I also added a tsp of sour cream and a few turns of blk pepper. Absolutely great! Thank you for sharing this recipe.

I'll have to add that this is the closest to how I make Guacamole:)I sometimes use lime juice, but this is sooo yummy. Guacamole as it was intended to be!Thanks, Miss Annie---PeggyLynn

This is how I like guacamole! No sour cream, mayo, or bottled salsa....just fresh, light, uncomplicated ingredients. The mashed avocado gives it a wonderfully creamy texture. I used lime juice instead of lemon juice; just my preference. I'll make this often. Thanx for posting.
