Remove the pit and skin from the inside avocado meat. Coat with fresh lime juice to prevent from browning.

Add 2 teaspoons more lime juice.
Add Cayenne pepper gradually (if preferred).
Sprinkle on salt and pepper to taste.

Notes

When cutting or seeding hot peppers, use rubber or plastic gloves to protect your hands, and avoid touching your face after working with fresh jalapeno peppers.
