# Directions:

01 - Halve and pit the avocados. Scoop out the flesh into a large bowl and mash with a fork until mostly smooth while maintaining a slightly chunky texture.
02 - Add lime juice, salt, cumin, black pepper, minced garlic, and chopped cilantro to the mashed avocados. Stir thoroughly to combine all ingredients. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
03 - In a separate bowl, combine diced tomatoes, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Mix gently to avoid crushing the tomatoes.
04 - Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl and spread evenly. Top with the prepared pico de gallo, distributing it across the surface.
05 - Serve immediately with tortilla chips or vegetable crudités for dipping.
