    This Authentic Guacamole recipe is easy, quick, and made with just a few simple ingredients! Use it as a dip, side, or topping!

    How to Make Authentic Guacamole:

    With just a few fresh ingredients, you can have this delicious Guacamole ready in just 10 minutes!

    • Cut the avocados in half and remove the seed.
    • Score and scoop out the avocados.
    • Mix all ingredients in a large bowl.
    • Mash, using a fork or potato masher, to desired consistensy. 
    • Serve with chips, or use it as a topping!

    Serving Suggestions:

    This Authentic Guacamole is featured in the "Fun Fiesta Night" video. It's served on tacos filled with Flaming Sizzling Chicken Fajitas, and paired with a Skinny Margarita.

    This Guacamole is also great on it's own as a dip, served with some chips!

    Here are some of our other recipes you can try it with:

    • Sweet Potato & Black Bean Tacos
    • Blackened Mahi-Mahi Fish Tacos
    • Beef Chile Colorado
    • Chiles Rellenos Baked w/Turkey Taco Meat
    • Authentic Chiles Rellenos

    How to Store Guacamole:

    To prevent browning, line the surface of the guacamole with plastic wrap and store in an airtight container. Keep it in the fridge when not being used.

    Ever have too many ripe avocados at once? Make a big batch of this guacamole and freeze it! I like to use gallon sized plastic freezer bags, and also mix in a little bit more lime juice to help keep it from browning.

    To Freeze:

    • Place your bag in a tall large cup or jar, and fold over the sides of the bag around the top edges of the cup.
    • Spoon the guacamole into the bag.
    • Remove the bag from the cup, flatten out the guacamole and remove any remaining air before sealing.
    • Lay flat to freeze, for easy storing!
    • When ready to use: Submerge the bag in water and let thaw for about 30 min-1 hour. Or, place the bag in the fridge to thaw overnight!
