Here's the thing... I never understand why people put things like sour cream or mayonnaise in their guacamole. Why? Why do you do that? Avocados are already so creamy and have great flavor. Why make it all fatty and yuck? So here is my easy guacamole recipe. This is all you'll need...
2 large avocados
salsa of your choice
garlic salt
ground cumin
Slice your avocados in half like so...
Then slice them up like so (I make cubes inside the skin then scoop it all out with a spoon)...
Add a few dashes of cumin (if you've never used this it has great flavor and can be used in many dishes) and garlic salt. Add 2 or 3 large spoonfuls of salsa.
Mash it all up real good. I use a small whisk and mash away. Taste test with a tortilla chip to make sure you have enough of the spices and salsa and adjust to your liking.

I've heard lime juice helps keep it green longer... got any other suggestions?
ReplyDeleteor if you ever just need to use half of an avocado... leave the half with the seed in it for later, the seed keeps it fresh longer.
