    Easy Guacamole

    Guacamole is a simple, quick, fresh, and tasty dip to make when entertaining. You can serve it with tortilla chips, or quesadilla wedges, and make it smooth or chunky depending on your taste.

    Make sure you use ripe avocados for the best flavor and texture. Most avocados you’ll find in the store won’t be ripe enough, so plan ahead. Don’t puree the avocados, because you want a slightly chunky texture. I like to cut the avocado into pieces, then mash everything together with this masher.
