Well, there are several recipes there. A little tricky in that one
needs to choose 'appetizers' and 'guacamole' as search terms.
Guacamole is, basically, mashed avocado. What do *you* consider

lemon juice, teensy diced onion, Tobasco (*my* tradition, 'though now
I add Thai chile flakes instead) and ground pepper.
