Easy Guacamole Recipe

INGREDIENTS –

• SALSA – You’ll need 1/4 cup of your favorite storebought or homemade salsa
• LIME – 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice, or bottled lime juice if you have that instead

Guacamole Variations

• Make it Savory – add crumbled bacon, salt, cumin, garlic, or cilantro
• Make it Sweet – add chopped mangoes or pineapple
• Make it Smooth – process the avocado with sour cream until smooth

DIRECTIONS –

MASH. In a small bowl, mash the avocado with a fork. You can mash it as much or as little as you’d like, depending on how chunky you want your guacamole to be.
