Finely chop white onion and add it to the mixture.

Squeeze lime juice into the pico de gallo mixture.

Optional: add finely diced jalapeno to the pico de gallo.

Season the pico de gallo with a pinch of salt and a pinch of black pepper.

Mix the pico de gallo ingredients together and cover it. Let it sit for a couple of hours to allow the flavors to meld.

Prepare the guacamole by cutting a couple of avocados in half and removing the pit.

Scoop the avocado flesh into a bowl and mash it, noting that the avocados are a bit firm, resulting in a chunkier guac.

Add a couple of tablespoons of the prepared pico de gallo into the mashed avocado.

Add a couple of teaspoons of fiesta rub seasoning to the guacamole mixture.

Mix everything together until well combined.
