Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Arrange chile peppers on a baking sheet.
Step 2
Toast chile peppers in the preheated until browned, about 7 minutes. Remove stems.
Step 3
Mix avocados, onion, and roma tomatoes together in a bowl.
Step 4
Blend canned tomatoes, cilantro, toasted chile peppers, garlic powder, and salt in a blender until smooth. Pour about half the blended tomato mixture into avocado mixture. Reserve remaining tomato mixture for another use or for dipping.
Step 5
Squeeze lime juice into avocado mixture and gently stir until evenly combined. Transfer guacamole to a smaller serving bowl; place reserved avocado pit in the middle to prevent browning.
