– **Shrimp:** 20-25 medium-sized, cooked shrimp, peeled and deveined. These shrimp are the highlight of your bites and should be flavorful and juicy.
– **Avocados:** 2 ripe avocados form the base of our guacamole. Choose avocados that give slightly to gentle pressure, indicating ripeness.
– **Lime:** Juice of 1 lime adds tanginess and prevents the avocado from browning too quickly.
– **Seasonings:** 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper can be adjusted to taste, adding depth and balance.
– **Tomato:** 1 small diced tomato adds freshness and texture to the mix.
– **Red Onion:** 1 tablespoon of finely chopped red onion for a sharp, sweet contrast.
– **Cilantro:** 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh cilantro for a burst of herbaceous citrus flavor.
– **Jalapeño:** 1 seeded and finely chopped jalapeño to give the guacamole a subtle kick.
– **Tortilla Chips:** A bag of round corn tortilla chips for a crunchy base.
– **Optional:** Hot sauce for those who prefer their bites with extra heat.
