To garnish these crunchy bites, sprinkle with finely diced red onion or scallion, chopped fresh cilantro, and additional jalapeño. Or you could mix things up and spread the avocado mixture over cucumber slices. Buy an extra avocado to whip-up another batch of guacamole to top tacos or serve with grilled chicken later in the week. A just-ripe avocado makes the best guacamole. When selecting an avocado, gently press down on the stem end. If it gives slightly, the avocado is ripe. If you’re not using a ripe one right away, store it in the crisper drawer of your fridge for up to several days.
