Ingredients You'll Need For This Recipe:

To make this easy and delicious guacamole recipe, you'll only need three ingredients.

• Ripe Avocados
• Sour Cream
• Salsa

Look for avocados that are slightly soft to the touch and have a darker green color.

For the Sour Cream and Salsa, it doesn't matter which brand you use. Simply use your favorite!

Directions:

To begin, slice each avocado in half, remove the avocado pit, and scoop the flesh onto a plate.

Mash the avocados with a fork until they're creamy but still slightly chunky.

Scrape the mashed avocado into a small bowl or container.

Add salsa and sour cream to the bowl, and if you'd like to add a pinch of salt you could do so now. Although the salt is completely optional.

With a spoon or spatula, give the mixture a good stir.

Your homemade guacamole is now ready to be served. It's perfect as a dip or as a topping for your tacos, burritos, or salads.

Tips and Tricks:

To make sure your guacamole is top-notch, here are some tips and tricks to consider.

First, make sure that you are using a perfectly ripe avocado. You can tell they are fully ripe by gently pressing the skin, and if it gives slightly, then it's ready to be used.

Another tip is to use a fork to mash the avocados, rather than a blender or food processor. This will give your guacamole a chunkier texture and prevent it from becoming too smooth and watery.

If you're looking to add more flavor to your guacamole, try adding some finely diced red onion, chopped cilantro, minced garlic, or some fresh lime juice. You can also add a squeeze of lime to give it a citrusy kick.

Finally, to prevent your guacamole from turning brown, cover it with plastic wrap and press it down so that the wrap is touching the surface of the guacamole. This will minimize the amount of air that touches the guacamole and prevent it from oxidizing.

If you are making a large batch of this simple guacamole recipe, try using a potato masher instead of a fork. It will make smashing the avocados go much quicker.

Now that you have these tips and tricks in mind, let's move on to some ideas for serving your delicious guacamole.

Now that you have the perfect go-to recipe for really good guacamole, it's time to think about how you want to serve it.
