This vegan guacamole is mild and loaded with healthy cholesterol-lowering fats (no mayo here!) You can make as large or as small a batch as you wish. —Crafty Fork
Ingredients
-
2-4
ripe avocados
-
1
garlic clove, smashed and finely diced
-
1
lime
-
salt
to taste
Directions
-
Start with ripe, not-too-soft avocados. Remove skin and pits from avocados and place in medium-sized bowl. Reserve a pit or two for later – it is said that leaving the pit in the guacamole will preserve freshness and keep the mash from oxidizing and going brown.
-
Add garlic and juice of half of lime to avocado (or whole lime if you are using 4 avocados). Mash well.
-
Serve immediately, or place reserved pit(s) in bowl an refrigerate, covered (plastic wrap touching the surface of the guacamole), and use within 24 hours.
