How to Make Guacamole

The best guacamole recipe is so easy to make. Just grab your fresh guacamole ingredients and mash everything together. A Mortar & Pestle is the best way to mix this simple guacamole recipe into the perfect texture and blend the flavors. However, if you don’t have that, you can also use the bottom of a glass & cutting board. When all else fails, a bowl and a fork is an easy way to mash things together.

What can you put guacamole on?

Ohhh don’t get me started! This is the best guacamole recipe we’re talking about, so the simple answer is that you can put it on anything and everything…or maybe that’s just me?

I love this simple guacamole recipe because it’s really down to the basics, so the flavor is incredible but not overwhelming. That means it tastes REALLY good with A LOT of things. Obviously you could dip your homemade tortilla chips in a bowl of this guac until it’s gone and call it a day. But it goes so well on top of all kinds of Mexican dishes.

Here are some of my favorite Mexican recipes:

This homemade guacamole recipe would go perfectly with any of those dishes…and it would also taste great on mini taquitos, on this Mexican Chicken Salad Sandwich, or with these Foil Packet Nachos. I think you get my point! Guac is one of the best Super Bowl appetizers, so make a bunch and throw a bit on everything.

How do you keep guacamole from turning brown?

Since this is the best guacamole recipe (SO. GOOD.) you definitely want to keep it from turning brown before it’s gone. What’s the easiest way to stop guacamole from turning brown? Eat it all at once! But if you can’t do that…

Here are a few simple tricks to keep guacamole from turning brown:

Store your guacamole in an airtight container
Seal the top of the container with plastic wrap before putting the lid on top (extra seal of freshness!)
Add extra lime juice on top of the guac before sealing
Try putting the avocado pit straight into the container of guacamole before storing
Add a thin layer of water or olive oil on top of the guac & seal shut

How long can guacamole stay in the fridge?

While all the tips listed above will help to stop your guacamole from turning brown too quickly, it will happen eventually. Homemade guacamole should last in the refrigerator up to a couple of days.

If your guacamole does turn brown, it’s still okay to eat it. Just scrape away the layer of brown and eat the green guacamole. It’s best not to consume the oxidized (brown) portion. And if it’s been more than 3 days, you should throw it out and make a new batch.
