Notes
Prep Tips - If you don't have an avocado masher, use a potato masher or fork to mash the avocados.
Serving Tips - Enjoy this guacamole as a dip for chips, carrots, or sweet bell pepper strips. Spread it on your favorite sandwich or burger or add to a taco salad.
Storage Tips - Oxidation will cause the guacamole to brown or darker over time. To help prevent this, place a piece of plastic wrap over the top of the guacamole and pressing it into the top of the guacamole while removing as many air bubbles as possible. You can also, spray the top of the guacamole with non-stick cooking spray or drizzle with additional lime juice to deter browning.
