Best Guacamole Recipe Ingredients

• 3 Avocados, ripened
• ½ cup of light mayo
• ½ cup of mild salsa
• ½ tsp. of seasoning salt
• ½ tsp. of fresh ground pepper (regular pepper will also work if fresh ground pepper is not handy)
• ½ tsp. of minced garlic
• 2 tbsp. of finely-minced sweet onion

Instructions

Using a paring knife, slice the avocados down the center from top to bottom and gently break apart. Dispose of the large seed in the center. Use a spoon to scoop out the “meat” of the avocado and deposit into a side bowl. Using a fork, mash and mix the avocado until it is in a creamy form. Do not use a blender as the blender will over-constitute the fruit and it will lose some of its flavor. It is okay if it has a few chunks in it, it can be as creamy or as chunky as you like, according to personal taste.

Mix in mayo, salsa, garlic, onion, and remaining seasonings and stir together by hand. Put in refrigerator for thirty minutes before serving. This recipe serves 8 people and can easily be doubled for larger parties. To make guacamole at home and experiment with this recipe, if you like a more spicy option, add ¼ tsp. of red pepper flakes or drizzle Tabasco sauce over the top of the mixture and let it soak in while refrigerating.

Other variations for this recipe: Plain, low-fat yogurt can be used to replace the mayo if no mayo is on hand. A hot salsa instead of a mild salsa can be used if your family likes a kick to their appetizers. If you would like a chunkier guacamole dip, dice red and green bell peppers, sauté over a hot pan in olive oil for five minutes before adding to the dip.
