I eat homemade guacamole at breakfast a couple of mornings a week, especially in the summer. I cut cucumber rounds, red bell pepper strips, carrot and celery sticks and use the guacamole as a dip. I eat a couple of eggs on the side for protein. YUMM!
OK, maybe I’m dense overall, but I hate when recipes just say “onion”…red onion? white onion? yellow onion? I’ve never really been a fan of guac so I’m not sure what the standard is but I want to try this.
Any kind of onion will work fine. I personally prefer red onion minced pretty small.
I squeeze a tiny bit of fresh lemon juice over guacamole dip.
It keeps the gray away til next day!
Is it a sauce or a main dish?
Thanks

You can use it as a condiment, salad dressing or a dip.
Great recipe! We’ll see how the pit and covering it works to keep the color, I’m a bit skeptical.
